He sells 40% of them. Left is 60%
Hence 420 apples is 60% of initial apples
If initial total apples was x then,
60% of x = 420
60/100 × x = 420
x = 420 × 100/60
x = 700
He had 700 apples originally.
Hence 420 apples is 60% of initial apples
If initial total apples was x then,
60% of x = 420
60/100 × x = 420
x = 420 × 100/60
x = 700
He had 700 apples originally.
