To find out how much Charlotte will pay for the watermelons, we need to calculate the total weight of the three watermelons and then multiply it by the cost per pound.
Total weight = 19 pounds + 15.2 pounds + 13.7 pounds = 48.9 pounds (rounded to the nearest tenth)
Now we multiply the total weight by the cost per pound:
Total cost = 48.9 pounds * $0.46/pound = $22.49 (rounded to the nearest cent)
Therefore, Charlotte will pay $22.49 for the watermelons.
