    Step-by-step explanation:

    First, we know that the apples sell for $3 per pound. We can calculate the total cost of the 659 pounds of green apples by multiplying 3 by 659.

    659 x 3 = $1,977

    To find the cost of the red apples sold, we simply subtract $4,836 by 1,977.

    $4,836 - $1,977 = 2,859

    The last step is to divide $2,859 by 3 to figure out the answer.

    $2,859 / 3 = 953

    953 pounds of red apples were sold.
