Answer:
You have to represent the quantities in percentage form.
This means you have to find out the weight of a particular fruit with respect to the total weight of the fruits, multiplied by 100.
So, the total weight of the fruits is 12 + 8 + 15 + 5 = 40 kg
Now, the percentage of apple is (12/40) * 100 = 30%
The percentage of grapes is (8/40) * 100 = 20%
The percentage of papaya is (15/40) * 100 = 37.5%
The percentage of oranges is (5/40) * 100 = 12.5%.
So, the information can be represented in percentage form as below.
A fruit seller bought 30% apples by weight, 20% grapes by weight, 37.5% papaya by weight and 12.5% oranges by weight.
