Joe eats 5 1/4 pounds of fruit a month. how much fruit will he eat in a year?

5.25 times 12. (5.25 because 1/4=.25)
5.25x12=63
He will eat 63 pounds of fruit each year!

Alright so because there are 12 months in a you would multiply the amount he eats per month by 12 which would equal 63 pounds of fruit in a year 5 1/4 pounds multiplied by 12 months = 63 pounds
