_____ANSWER_____
let the apple be x and the banana be y.
QUESTION :--
x + x + y = 230. (eq.1)
y - x = 5
=> y = x + 5. (eq. 2)
SOLUTION :--
Substituting eq.2 in eq.1 ;
=> x+x + x+5 = 230
=> 3x + 5 = 230
=> 3x = 230 - 5
=> 3x = 225
=> x = 225 / 3
=> x = 75. (eq.3)
now,substituting eq.3 in eq.2 ;
y = x + 5
=> y = 75 + 5
=> y = 80
Thus, the no of bananas = 80
