Answer 1

Answer:

a.)number of fruits in  bag (except mango )= 205

b.)fraction of mangoes =35/270  =7/54

Step-by-step explanation:no. of mangoes = 35

total number of fruits = 240

a.) number of fruits in  bag (except mango ) = total number of fruits-no. of mangoes

number of fruits in  bag (except mango )= 240 - 35

number of fruits in  bag (except mango )= 205

b.) fraction of mangoes =no. of mangoes/ total number of fruits

fraction of mangoes =35/270

=7/54

Answer 2

Answer:

a. 120

b. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming ratio of fruits in basket as per question = 1:1:3:5

Thus orange and Pomegranate is x

Apple is 3x and Mango is 5x

Now x + x + 3x + 5x = 240 Thus x = 24

Thus number of Oranges and Pomegranates in basket is 24 each,

Number of Apples is 72

and Number of Oranges = 120

Fraction of mangoes in bag is

120/240 = 1/2
