This is your answer and mark me as brainliest.

Answer 2

Answer:

Total no of fish is 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no of fish = N

Yellow fish = 60

Orange fish = 1/3 of N

Then,

Total no of fish = 1/3 × N + 60

N = N/3 + 60

3N = N+180

3N - N = 180

2N = 180

N = 180/2

N = 90

Yellow fish = 60

Orange fish = 30

Total no of fish = 90
