Answer 2

Answer:

1050

Step-by-step explanation:

After selling 40% of the apples, the fruit seller has 420 apples which is (100–40, i.e,) 60% .

Thus, if the total no. of apples were “x”,

Than, 60% of x = 420

60/100 of 'x' = 420

2/5 of 'x' = 420

'x' = 420*5/2

'x' = 210*5. = 1050 [ans].

Thus, he originally had 1050 apples.
