The vendor sold 60 pieces of fruit that are either apples or oranges. The ratio of apples to oranges is 3:2. How many apples did the vendor sell? How many oranges dos the vendor sell?

53. The ratio of apple over orange = 3:2 The total number of fruits are 60 pieces. Now, find the total number of apples and total number of oranges. = > first, let’s add 2 + 3 = 5 Thus, we have 5 division for 60 pieces fruits, = > 60 / 5 = > 12 let’s solve for the apple = > 12 x 3 = 36 Now. The orange = > 12 * 2 = 24 = > 36 + 24 = 60 Thus the ratio is 36 : 24
