The graph shows the number of fruits sold in a shop.
- How many more dates are there than mangoes?
- If each fruit was sold at $3, how much money was collected from selling the mangoes and the bananas?
(a)
Number of dates more than mangoes
= (10 - 7) x 8

(b)
Total number of mangoes and bananas

= 10 x 8
= 80
Amount that was collected
