6.5 pounds of apples are there in each bag

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the pounds of apple in each bag

Total weight of apples = 19 1/2 = 39/2

Number of bags = 3

Weight of each bag = 39/2 ÷ 3

                                 = 39/2 × 1/3 (∵ a÷b = a × 1/b)

                                 = 13/2 = 6.5 pounds
