$17.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Jackie went to the store and bought 2 1/4 pounds of apples at $5 per pound

1 pounds = $5

2 1/4 pounds = x

x = 2 1/4 × $5

x = 9/4 × $5

x = $45/4

x = $11.25

9 pounds of pears at $2.35 per pound.

1 pound = $2.35

9 pounds = x

x = 9 × $2.35

x = $21.15

Total amount that she spent =

$11.25 + $21.15

= $32.40

If she paid with a $50 bill, how much change did she receive?

The change she received =

$50 - $32.40

= $17.60

21/58.
