Alright, lets get started.

Tyler bought  pounds of oranges = [tex]3\frac{7}{16}[/tex]

The order we have given is called mixed fraction.

Mixed fraction means a whole number combined with a fraction.

Means oranges = [tex]3\frac{7}{16}=3 + \frac{7}{16}[/tex]

Means oranges = [tex]3 + 0.4375[/tex]

Means oranges = 3.4375 pounds

So, the answer in decimal is 3.4375 pounds.    :   Answer

Answer:

3.4375 pounds is the weight of the oranges Tyler bought.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tyler bought [tex]3\frac{7}{16}[/tex] pounds of oranges.

That means he purchased 3 pounds plus a fraction of one pound of oranges.

We can rewrite the weight as 3 pounds + [tex]\frac{7}{16}[/tex] pounds

Now the fraction can be written in decimals as

[tex]\frac{7}{16}[/tex] = 0.4375

Therefore, the weight of oranges will be

3 + 0.4375 = 3.4375 pounds
