Answer 2

Answer:

24 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

let the numberf apples be x

his sister have = 1/2of x

his brother have = 1/2 of(1/2of x)

                            = 1/4 of x

the remaining apples are = 6

A/Q

     6+1/2of x + 1/4 of x = x

     6+1/2 of x + 6 = x

      6 + 6 + x/2 = x                              (here in the equation i have used of

      12+x/2 = x                                      in the replace of multiplication)

      x = 12of 2

      x = 24
