The graph shows the number of fruits sold in a stall.
- How many more dates are there than limes?
- If each fruit was sold at $9, how much money was collected from selling the dates and the bananas?
(a)
Number of dates more than limes
= (8 - 6) x 4
= 2 x 4
= 8
(b)
Total number of dates and bananas
= (8 + 4) x 4
= 12 x 4
= 48
Amount that was collected
= 48 x 9
= $432
Answer(s): (a) 8; (b) $432
