The graph shows the number of fruits sold in a market.
- How many more guavas are there than lemons?
- If each fruit was sold at $8, how much money was collected from selling the guavas and the mangoes?
(a)
Number of guavas more than lemons
= (11 - 5) x 4
= 6 x 4

(b)
Total number of guavas and mangoes
= (11 + 7) x 4
= 18 x 4
= 72
Amount that was collected
= 72 x 8
= $576
Answer(s): (a) 24; (b) $576
