Perry had 80% fewer caramel apples than Vaidev. After Vaidev gave 195 caramel apples to Perry, Perry had ⁴₅ as many caramel apples as Vaidev. How many caramel apples did each of them have in the end?

1. Vaidev
2. Perry

	Perry	Vaidev	Total
Before	1x9 = 9 u	5x9 = 45 u	6x9 = 54 u
Change	+ 195	- 195
After	4x6 = 24 u	5x6 =  30 u	9x6 = 54 u

Number of caramel apples that Perry had at first in percentage
= 100% - 80%
= 20%

20% = ²⁰₁₀₀ = ¹₅

The total number of caramel apples at first and in the end remains unchanged. Make the total number of caramel apples the same. LCM of 9 and 6 is 54.

Number of caramel apples that Vaidev gave to Perry
= 45 u - 30 u
= 15 u

15 u = 195

1 u = 195 ÷ 15 = 13

Number of caramel apples that Perry had in the end
= 24 u
= 24 x 13
= 312

Number of caramel apples that Vaidev had in the end
= 30 u
= 30 x 13
= 390

Answer(s): (a) 312; (b) 390
