    Answer:

    Weight = 6.3 kg

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    Total = 8.4kg

    Pears = \frac{1}{4}

    Required

    Determine the weight of apples

    First, we calculate the fraction of apple.

    Apple = 1 - Pears

    Apple = 1 - \frac{1}{4}

    Take LCM

    Apple = \frac{4-1}{4}

    Apple = \frac{3}{4}

    The weight is then calculated as:

    Weight = \frac{3}{4} * Total

    Weight = \frac{3}{4} * 8.4kg

    Weight = \frac{3* 8.4kg}{4}

    Weight = \frac{25.2kg}{4}

    Weight = 6.3 kg

    Hence, the apples weigh 6.4kg
