Question

Assessment 1. • Shahena bought bananas and papayas for her fruit salad. The number of bananas were three more than twice the number of papayas. How many papayas did she buy if she bought 15 bananas?​

Answer 1

Answer:

PAPAYAS=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of bananas be B and number of papayas be P.

According to the question ,

B= 3+2P     (1)

also, it is given that B=15,

so the equation      (1)  becomes,

15=3+2P

15-3=2P

12=2P

P=12/2

P=6
