Answer 1

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

price of apple 40

price of 2 apple 80

price of orange - 20

price of 4 orange - 80

80 + 80 = 160

and with same method 1 apple will cost 40 and 6 orange will cost 6 × 20 = 120

120 + 40 = 160

So answer is 60 for 3 oranges

Answer 2

Given,

The price of 2 apples and 4 oranges = Rs. 160

The price of 1 apple and 6 oranges = Rs. 160

To find,

The price of 3 oranges.

Solution,

The price of 3 oranges will be Rs. 60.

We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.

According to the question,

The price of 2 apples and 4 oranges = Rs. 160

The price of 1 apple and 6 oranges = Rs. 160

Now, if we observe this we find that if 1 apple is subtracted then 2 more oranges can be bought.

Now, let's take the price of orange to be Rs. x.

So,

Price 1 apple = Price of 2 oranges

Price of 2 apples = Price of 4 oranges

So, it will be Rs. 4x.

The price of 2 apples and 4 oranges = Rs. 160

4x+4x = Rs. 160

8x = 160

x = 160/8

x = Rs. 20

So,

The price of 1 orange = Rs. 20

Price of 3 oranges = Rs. (20×3)

Price of 3 oranges = Rs. 60

Hence, the price of 3 oranges is Rs. 60.
