After |
3 u |
1 u |
3 u - 34 |
190 |
Total number of fruits in the end
= 3 u + 1 u + 3 u - 34
= 7 u - 34
7 u - 34 = 190
7 u = 190 + 34
7 u = 224
1 u = 224 ÷ 7 = 32
Number of chikoos at first
= 3 u - 34 + 69
= 3 x 32 + 35
= 131
The number of chikoos and grapefruits at first is the same.
Number of grapefruits sold
= 131 - 32
= 99
Answer(s): 99
