Emily had some kiwis and passion fruits in 2 containers. In Container D, the number of kiwis to the number of passion fruits was in the ratio of 5 : 8. In Container E, there were thrice as many kiwis as passion fruits. After Emily transferred ³₄ of the passion fruits from Container D to Container E, the number of fruits left in Container D was 161 and the ratio of the number of kiwis to the number of passion fruits in Container B became 4 : 9. How many fruits were in Container E in the end?

	Container D		Container E
	Kiwis	Passion Fruits	Kiwis	Passion Fruits
Before	5 u	8 u	3x4 =  12 p	1x4 = 4 p
Change		- 6 u		+ 6 u (+ 23 p)
After	5 u	2 u	4x3 = 12 p	9x3 = 27 p

Number of passion fruits that Emily transferred from Container D to Container E
= ³₄ x 8 u
= 6 u

Total number of fruits in Container D in the end
= 5 u + 2 u
= 7 u

7 u = 161
1 u = 161 ÷ 7 = 23

The number of kiwis in Container E is the unchanged quantity.
LCM of 3 and 4 is 12.

Number of passion fruits that Emily transferred from Container D to Container E
= 6 u
= 6 x 23
= 138

Increase in the number of passion fruits that due to the transfer from Container D to Container E
= 27 p - 4 p
= 23 p

23 p = 6 u 
23 p = 138

1 p = 138 ÷ 23 = 6

Number of fruits in Container E in the end
= 12 p + 27 p
= 39 p
= 39 x 6
= 234

Answer(s): 234
