Answer 1

40 %+420apples hehee

Answer 2

Answer: original amount of apples = 700

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of the apples be “x”

40 % of x is sold. This means that the 60% left = 420 apples

$\frac{60}{100} * x = 420\\\\=> x = 420 * \frac{100}{60}\\\\=> x = 700$

Therefore, the original amount of apples = 700
