Solutions
Let 'a' and 'b' are number of oranges and apples respectively.
Oranges sold to A = 20/100 * a = 0.2 a
Oranges sold to B = (a – 0.2a) * 40/100 = 0.32 a
Remaining number of oranges = a – (0.2a + 0.32 a) = 0.48 a
=> 48 = 0.48 a
=> 100 = a
Apples sold to A = 40/100 * b = 0.4 b
Remaining number of Apples = 10/100 * b =0.1 b
Apples sold to B = 100
=> 100 = b – (0.4 b + 0.1 b)
=> 100 = 0.5 b
=> 200 = b
Total number of apples and oranges = a + b = 100 + 200 = 300
Or
Short cut:
Let 'a' and 'b' are number of oranges and apples respectively.
48 = 60% of (100 - 20)% of a
a = 100
100 = (100 - 40 - 10)% of b
b = 200
Total apples and oranges = 100 + 200 = 300
