potatoes.find Abubackers's
share and Srija's share​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

tal number of tomatoes = 20

Total number of potatoes = 18

Aboobacker got one-fifth of the tomatoes, and one-third of the potatoes.

Number of tomatoes with Aboobacker = 20 ÷ 5

                                                              = 4

Number of potatoes with Aboobacker = 18 ÷ 3  

                                                             = 6

So, we will circle 4 tomatoes and 6 potatoes in blue to show Aboobacker's share.

Srija got two-fifth of the tomatoes and three-sixth of the potatoes.

Number of tomatoes with Srija = 2 × 4

                                                  = 8

One-sixth of 18 = 3

Number of potatoes with Srija = 3 × 3

                                                 = 9

Thus, Ramu gave 4 tomatoes to Aboobacker and 8 tomatoes to Srija. So, he gave a total of 12 tomatoes to Aboobacker and Srija.

Now, Ramu gave 6 potatoes to Aboobacker and 9 potatoes to Srija. So, he gave a total of 15 potatoes to  Aboobacker and Srija.

Number of tomatoes left = 20 − 12

                                        = 8

Number of potatoes left = 18 − 15

                                       = 3

Thus, Nancy got 8 tomatoes and 3 potatoes.
