Answer 2

The total number of apples in the basket are 150

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total no. of apples be x

18% of apple in a basket go bad

So, No. of bad apples =$18\%x=0.18x$

So, No. of good apples =$x-0.18x=0.82x$

There are 123 good apples in the basket

So,$0.82x=123$

$x=\frac{123}{0.82}$

$x=150$

Hence the total number of apples in the basket are 150
