Question

16% of Apples in a basket bad if there are 42 goods Apple in the basket and find the total number of Apples in the basket

Answer 1

Percentage of Bad Apples = 16% of total apples
So, Percentage Good Apples = 100-16 = 84% of total apples

Let total apples be x

We are given
                   84% of total Apples = good apples  
 
              So , x*84/100 = 42
               x = 4200/84
                    x = 100/2 = 50

So, total apples = 50
