Henry had 2.5 lb of apples for a fruit salad. The recipe says that 5 lb of apples are needed for the salad. Henry went to the store and bought an additional 1.5 lb of apples.

Did Henry get a reasonable amount of apples from the store?


A.
Yes, Henry got a reasonable amount of apples because he only needed 1.5 lb of apples (2.5 – 1 = 1.5)

B.
No, Henry did not get a reasonable amount of apples because he needed a total of 7.5 pounds of apples (2.5 + 5 = 7.5).

C.
No, Henry did not get a reasonable amount of apples because he needed 2.5 more pounds of apples (2.5 + 2.5 = 5).
