Answer 2

Answer:

∴ The percentage of good apples is $76$%.  

Step-by-step explanation:

• In context with question asked,
• We have to find the percentage of good apples.
• It is given that, total apples in a box = $500$

       Number of apples spoiled = $10$ dozen

• We know that, $1$ dozen = $12$ units
• So, $10$ dozen = $10\times 12=120$
• It means that total $120$ apples were spoiled.

• So,

    Number of good apples = Total apples - Spoiled apples

                                       = $500-120$

                                       = $380$ apples

• Now,

       % of good apples = $\frac{380}{500} \times 100$

                                 = $\frac{380}{5}$

                                 = $76$%

• ∴ The percentage of good apples is $76$%.
