Step-by-step explanation:

1st package weighs $12\dfrac{1}{2}$ pounds;

2nd package weighs $35\dfrac{1}{4}$ pounds;

3rd package weighs $41\dfrac{7}{20}$ pounds;

First, add whole numbers:

12+35+41=88

Now add fractions:

$\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{7}{20}=\dfrac{10}{20}+\dfrac{5}{20}+\dfrac{7}{20}=\dfrac{10+5+7}{20}=\dfrac{22}{20}=\dfrac{11}{10}=1\dfrac{1}{10}$

So, the total weight is

$88+1\dfrac{1}{10}=89\dfrac{1}{10}\ pounds$
