Answer 2

Answer:

25 question solution-

Given- • atleast 13 each

•order of distribution ( orange> banana> apple)

so from that we can say that

orange. : banana. : apple

18. :. 14. : 13

because it is said in the question he bought less than 15 banana.

therefore slowest possible value for banana is 14.

and from this we get our answer as 18( orange).

26 question solution-

here they are asking us to find minimum possible expenditure.

by same method

orange @ 3₹, banana4₹ &apple @5₹

For minimum expenses he need to buy more oranges and less apple because of their prices.

orange. > banana. > apple

cost = 3 4 5

@

× × ×

distribution=. 18 14 13

54 + 56 + 65

therefore sum of total minimum expenses is 175₹.

Hope this will help you.
