Answer 2

Answer:

Required Answer :-

162 apples

Solution :-

Let the number of rotten apples in the heap be x

$\bf \small \:probabiliy \: = \frac{favourable \: outcome}{total \: outcome}$

$\bf \small \: 0.18 = \frac{x}{900}$

$\bf \small \:0.18 \times 900 = x$

$\bf \small \:x = 162$

Therefore there are 162 rotten apples in the heap
