Answer:

The grapes are more expensive than the green grapes.

Step-by-step explanation:

GRAPES: If you divide $20.72 by 7, to get one bag of grapes instead of seven, you get $2.96/bag.

GREEN GRAPES: If you divide $8.46 by 3, to get one bag of green grapes instead of three, you get $2.82/bag.

$2.82 is less than $2.96, therefore, the grapes are more expensive than the green grapes.
