There was an equal number of guavas and mangoes. On Tuesday, some guavas were added, such that the number of guavas increased by 80%. On Wednesday, the number of guavas further increased by 50% and the number of mangoes decreased by 20%. There were 133 more guavas than mangoes in the end. How many guavas and mangoes were there altogether at first?

1 u |
1 u |
Change 1 |
+ 0.8 u |
No change |
After 1 |
1.8 u |
1 u |
Change 2 |
+ 0.9 u |
- 0.2 u |
After 2 |
2.7 u |
0.8 u |
Number of guavas added on Tuesday
= 80% x 1 u
=
80100 x 1 u
= 0.8 u
Number of guavas increased on Wednesday
= 50% x 1.8 u
=
50100 x 1.8 u
= 0.9 u
Number of mangoes decreased on Wednesday
= 20% x 1 u
=
20100 x 1 u
= 0.2 u
Number of more guavas than mangoes in the end
= 2.7 u - 0.8 u
= 1.9 u
1.9 u = 133
1 u = 133 ÷ 1.9 = 70
Total number of guavas and mangoes at first
= 1 u + 1 u
= 2 u
= 2 x 70
= 140
Answer(s): 140
