Hank bought 2.4 pounds of apples each pound cost $1.95 how much money was spent on the apples

The total would be $4.68. It is $0.78 for 0.4 of a pound, and you multiply $1.95 two times aqnd add that to the $0.78

Here is how you solve this:

1- If $1.95 = 1 pound that means you have to break that pounds down.

2- $1.95+ $1.95 (since there are two pounds.) = $3.9

3. 1/4 of 1.94 is = $0.45

4. $3.9+ .45= $4.35

5. check   2.4 can be rounded to '2'.

6. 1.95 + 1.95= $3.9

7. round $3.9 to $4

8. $ 4 & $4.35 are close.

9. Now you know that 4.35 is the correct answer.
