The ratio of passion fruits to peaches is 3 : 8. If 25 peaches are added, the ratio of passion fruits to peaches will be 3 : 13. How many more peaches than passion fruits are there in the end?
|
Passion Fruits |
Peaches |
Before |
3 u |
8 u |
Change |
|
+ 25 |
After |
3 u |
13 u |
The number of passion fruits at first and in the end remains unchanged.
Number of peaches added
= 13 u - 8 u
= 5 u
5 u = 25
1 u = 25 ÷ 5 = 5
Number of more peaches than passion fruits in the end
= 13 u - 3 u
= 10 u
= 10 x 5
= 50
Answer(s): 50
