Answer 1

Lets turn the words into numbers, so it's easier to compare.
1 5/8 lbs. Nuts, 5/8 lbs. Raisins, 1 2/8 lbs. Fruits, 1 7/8 lbs. Seeds

Now we list them from the smallest number to the largest. Remember whole numbers last.

5/8 lbs. Raisins, 1 2/8 lbs. Fruits, 1 5/8 lbs. Nuts, 1 7/8 lbs. Seeds.

So, the answer is C.
