Question

A fruit seller bought certain number of mangoes. Later he found that 11% of the mangoes were spoilt. He sold 60% of the remaining mangoes and still left with 534 mangoes. How many mangoes did he purchase initially?​

Answer 1

Answer:

He bought total 1000 mangoes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let mangoes be = X

spoil mangoes = 11% of the mangoes

= (11/100)X

good mangoes= Number of mangoes - Number of spoil mangoes

X- 11x/100

100x-11x/100

89x/100

Sold % = 60

Left % = 100-60=40

40% of left mangoes

= 40/100*89x/100

= 89x/250

good mangoes - left mangoes = 534

89x/100 - 89x/250 = 534

890x/1000-356x/1000= 534

534x/1000= 534

X = 534*1000/534

X= 1000

So the man bought 1000 apples

Answer 2

Answer:

1500

Step-by-step explanation:

x-x of 60% =534

x-60%/100 =534

40x/100 =534

x= 53400/40

x= 1335

so we find total

y-y of 11% =1335

y-11%/100 =1335

89y/100 =1335

y= 133500/89

y= 1500

so fruit seller buy 1500 mangoes
