Ian bought 10
v containers of passion fruits. Each container had 33 passion fruits. He gave away 63 passion fruits to his niece.
- How many passion fruits had he left?
- If he sold the rest at 40¢ each and v = 8, how much money did he receive from the passion fruits sold? Give your answer in dollars.
(a)
Total number of passion fruits
= 33 x 10
v = 330
v Number of passion fruits left
= 330
v - 63
(b)
Total passion fruits left
= 330
v - 63
= (330 x 8) - 63
= 2640 - 63
= 2577
Total amount received from the sale
= 2577 x 40
= 103080¢
$1 = 100¢
103080¢ = 103080 ÷ 100 = $1030.80
Answer(s): (a) 330
v - 63; (b) $1030.80
