To calculate the total amount Chandler spent, we need to multiply the weight of each fruit by its price per pound and then sum up the results.
For grapes: 2 pounds * $3.99 per pound = $7.98
For apples: 0.5 pounds * $1.75 per pound = $0.875
For cherries: 1.5 pounds * $4.90 per pound = $7.35
Adding up the prices for each fruit:
$7.98 + $0.875 + $7.35 = $16.205
Rounding to the nearest penny:
$16.21
Therefore, Chandler spent $16.21 altogether.
