Question

In a basket, the number of apples to the number of oranges is 3 : 4 . There are 15 apples in the basket. 1.How many oranges are in the basket? 2.How many apples and oranges are there altogether in the basket?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. 20 Oranges

2. 35 Apples and Oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let us consider the number of Oranges as 'x'

$=> \frac{3}{4}=\frac{15}{x}$

$=>x=\frac{(4)(15)}{3} =20$

Therefore the number of Oranges are 20.

2. ⇒ Total number of oranges and apples = No. of Apples + No. of Oranges

                                                                  = 15 + 20

                                                                  = 30
