Question

Lucy went to market to buy  4 dozen apples, she found 25% of them were rotten. As she was hungry , she ate 1/6th of the remaining apples on her way home. How many apples did she bring home?​

Answer 1

Answer:

4 dozens = 12 × 4 =48 apples

25% rotten = 48 × 25/100 = 12 apples rotten

ate i/6 of remaining apple = 1/6 × 36 (becoz 12 rotten minus them)

brought to the home          =  30 (ate 6 apples)

final answer     = 30 apples
