Passion fruits |
Comparing chikoos and passion fruits at first |
100 more |
|
Before |
5x4 = 20 u |
+ 100 |
20x1 = 20 u |
Change |
- 4x4 = - 16 u |
- 80 |
- 7x1 = - 7 u |
After |
1x4 = 4 u |
+ 20 |
13x1 = 13 u |
Comparing chikoos and passion fruits in the end |
16 less |

80% =
80100 =
45 80% x 100 =
45 x 100 = 80
100 - 80 = 20
35% =
35100 =
720 The number of chikoos is 16 less than the number of passion fruits in the end. So, if another 16 chikoos are added, the number of chikoos and passion fruits in the end will be the same.
4 u + 20 + 16 = 13 u
4 u + 36 = 13 u
13 u - 4 u = 36
9 u = 36
1 u = 36 ÷ 9 = 4
Number of passion fruits left
= 13 u
= 13 x 4
= 52
Total number of fruits left
= 4 u + 20 + 13 u
= 17 u + 20
= 17 x 4 + 20
= 68 + 20
= 88
Passion fruits leftTotal fruits left =
5288 =
