Step-by-step explanation:
Total weight of berries 5 / 4
Weight of first basket 2 pounds
Weight of second basket 3 pounds
Weight of third basket 4 pounds
Weight of forth basket 5 pounds

Weight of second basket with berries is 7 / 4
Weight of third basket with berries is 11 / 4
Weight of forth basket with berries is 15 / 4
Total weight of all baskets is
[tex]\frac{5}{4} + \frac{7}{4} + \frac{11}{4} + \frac{15}{4}[/tex] = 9 pounds.
