Question

a fruit seller had 450 apples,1/15 of those were rotten.he sold 5/7 remaining apples.what fraction of the total number of Apples were left?

Answer 1

Answer:

4/15

Explanation:

Total number of Apples = 450

Fraction of Apples rotten = 1/15

Number of apples rotten = 1/15 × 450 = 30

Remaining apples = 450 - 30 = 420

Fraction of Apples sold = 5/7

Number of apples sold = 5/7 × 420 = 300

Number of Apples not sold = 420 - 300 = 120

Fraction of apples not sold = 120/450 = 4/15

Answer 2

Answer:

Total number of apple's =450

Fraction of apples rotten =1/15

Number of apples rotten =1/15×450=30

Remaining apples =450_30=420

Fraction of apples sold =5/7

Number of apples sold =5/7×420=300

Number of apples not sold =420_300=120

Fraction of apples not sold =120/450=4/15
