    440 pounds

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Ratio is basically "parts".

    We have ratio of 4:3:4, that is a total of 4 + 3 + 4 = 11 parts

    The apple is 4 parts and total amount is 160 pounds. So each "part" is:

    160/4 = 40 pounds

    The total pounds of all 3 fruits is 11 parts * 40 pounds per part = 11 * 40 = 440 pounds

    hence,

    Truckload of fruits weigh at 440 pounds
