4 units of green apples+5 units of red=9 units in box a,
3 units in box a (x3)......9 units,hence 2 units in box b (x3) will give 6 units
green apples
box B-box A.....20
6 units - 4 units ...20
2 units......20
1 units.....20 divided by 2 = 10

red apples
5 units .....5X10 = 50

Given:

Ratio of Apples in A and B, A:B = 3:2

All the apples in box B are GREEN.

Ratio of green and red apples in box A , G:R= 4:5

Box B contains 20 more green apples than green apples in box A.

To Find:

Total Red Apples.

Solution:

From the above conditions , apples in A an B be 3x and 2x.

Green and Red apples in box A are 4y and 5y.

Framing the equations from the given conditions;

Total Apples in box A, 3x=4y+5y

                                     3x=9y...................................(1)

Difference of green apples, 2x-4y=20...................................(2)

Solving eq(1) and eq(2), we get

           y=10

Red apples in box A= 5y

                                 = 5\cdot 10

                                 =50

Hence the red apples in box A are 50.
