After |
3 u |
1 u |
3 u - 22 |
174 |
Total number of fruits in the end
= 3 u + 1 u + 3 u - 22
= 7 u - 22
7 u - 22 = 174
7 u = 174 + 22
7 u = 196
1 u = 196 ÷ 7 = 28
Number of passion fruits at first
= 3 u - 22 + 61
= 3 x 28 + 39
= 123
The number of passion fruits and mangoes at first is the same.
Number of mangoes sold
= 123 - 28
= 95
Answer(s): 95
