Answer 2

Answer is 9

!er total no. of apples be x

from given 12% is rotten then 88% is good

$88\% \: of \: m \: = \: (88 \div 100)m$

$(88 \div 100)m \: = \: 66$

$m \: = \: 66 \times (100 \div 88)$

$m \: = \: 3 \times 25$

$m \: = \: 75$

given 12% is rotten

$12\% \: of \: m \: = \: (12 \div 100)m \: = (12 \div 100)75 \: = \: 3 \times 3 \: = \: 9$
