$18 \frac{1}{2}$ $18 1/2$ pounds

Explanation:

Apples picked by Jordan = $8 \frac{9}{10}$ $8 9/10$ pounds

Apples picked by Dion = $9 \frac{6}{10}$ $9 6/10$ pounds

Total apples put in container = Apples picked by Jordan +Apples picked by Dion

which is, $8 \frac{9}{10}$ $8 9/10$ + $9 \frac{6}{10}$ $9 6/10$

To add mixed numbers, we have to change it to fraction.

Therefore, $8 \frac{9}{10}$ $8 9/10$ becomes $\frac{89}{10}$ $89/10$
and, $9 \frac{6}{10}$ $9 6/10$ becomes $\frac{96}{10}$ $96/10$

Now add, $\frac{89}{10}$ $89/10$ + $\frac{96}{10}$ $96/10$ = $\frac{185}{10}$ $185/10$ = $18 \frac{5}{10}$ $18 5/10$ = $18 \frac{1}{2}$ $18 1/2$ pounds
