Heya!!✋

A superb question you have asked.

Here is your answer.
-------------------------------------------

If, the apples of boxA = x
the apples of boxB = y

Then, according to question,

4(x-10) = ( y + 10)

or, (4x-40) = 10 + y
or, 4x - y = 50 --------(1)

( x + 5) = (y - 5)
or, (x - y) = -10 -----------(2)

Now, By the elimination method,

We will substract equ (1) to equ (2),

4x - y = 50
x - y. = -10
_(-)_(+)_(+)__
3x = 60
=> x = 20

Putting the value of x in equ (2)

20 - y = -10
=> y. = 30

So, The total number of apple in Box A and

Box B is 50. [Answer]
