Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Tom and Harry have 30 lemons each. Tom sells at the rate of 3 lemons for Rs. 1 and Harry sells at the rate of 2 lemons for Rs. 1. So in the end Tom earns 30 / 3 * 1= 10 Rupees and Harry earns 30 / 2 * 1 = 15 Rupees. So total of 10 + 15 = 25 Rs for 30 + 30 = 60 lemons.

One day Tom leaves out leaving all lemons to Harry. So Harry sells 3 + 2 = 5 lemons for 1 + 1 = 2 rupees. So in the end Harry sells 60/5 * 2 = 12 * 2 = 24 rupees.
