60% of the caramel apples in Packet P were apricot caramel apples and the rest were cherry caramel apples. Packet Q had 25% more apricot caramel apples than Packet P and twice as many caramel apples than the total number of caramel apples in Packet P. Find the percentage of the cherry caramel apples in Packet Q that would need to be transferred into Packet P, so that there were an equal number of apricot and cherry caramel apples in Packet P.

	Packet P		Packet Q
	Apricot	Cherry	Apricot	Cherry
	5 u		10 u
Before	3 u	2 u	3.75 u	6.25 u
Change		+ 1 u		- 1 u
After	3 u	3 u	3.75 u	5.25 u

60% = ⁶⁰₁₀₀ = ³₅
100 %+ 25% = 125%

 Total number of caramel apples in Packet P
= 3 u + 2 u
= 5 u

Total number of caramel apples in Packet Q
= 2 x 5 u 
= 10 u

Number of apricot caramel apples in Packet Q
= 125% x 3 u
=  ¹²⁵₁₀₀ x 3 u
= 3.75 u

Number of apricot caramel apples in Packet Q
= 10 u - 3.75 u
= 6.25 u

Number of cherry caramel apples to be transferred from Packet Q to Packet P
= 3 u - 2 u
= 1 u

Percentage of caramel apples to be transferred from Packet Q
= ¹_6.25 x 100%
= 16%

Answer(s): 16%
