Answer 1

Answer:

80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume there are only oranges and mangoes in the fruit basket else it will not be possible to solve this question.

Let the total number of fruits be x.

Percentage of oranges = 0.6x

Percentage of mangoes = x - 0.6x = 0.4x.

The number of mangoes = 32 and this should equal 0.4x.

=> 0.4x = 32

=> x = 32 * 10/4 = 80.

Thus the total number of fruits = 80.
