Explanation:

The question is about finding what needs to be determined from the problem. The problem states Elena bought 2.2 pounds of each type of fruit (pears, grapes, apples) and asks for the total cost. Option A is about 1 pound of pears, which is not the total cost. Option C is about 1 pound of apples, also not the total. Option D is about pears and apples, but the problem includes grapes too. Option B correctly states the total cost of 2.2 pounds of all three fruits (pears, grapes, apples).

Answer:

B. The total cost of 2.2 pounds of pears, grapes, and apples
