Small apples: Box of 3 apples for $5

Large apples: Box of 4 apples for $9

Mr Gulam received an equal sum of money for the sale of small and large apples. Mr Gulam sold 126 more small apples than large apples. How much did he receive from the sale of apples in total?

Let 'n' be the number of apples:

Small Apples: (n) / 3 x $5 = $5n/3

(126 / 3 ) x $5 = $210

Large Apples: (n) / 4 x $9 = $9n/4

$9n/4 = $5n/3 + $210

$9n/4 - $5n/3 = $210

$27n/12 - $20n/12 = $210

$7n = $210 x 12 = $2520

n = $2520 / 7 = 360

Amount received for small apples: (360 / 3 x $5) + ($126 / 3 x $5) = $810

Amount received for large apples: 360 / 4 x $9 = $810

Total amount: $810 x 2 = $1620

Ans: $1620

A box of 4 large apples sells for $10

Mr.Glam received the same amount of money from selling small and large apples. He sold 30 more small apples than large apples.

How much money did he make in total?

Solution:

Large apples= m

Small apples=m+30

m+30|3x6=2(m+30)

m|4x10=10m|4=2.5m

2m+60=2.5m

60=0.5m

m=120

120|4=30 boxes

30x10=300

150|3=50

50x6=300

300+300=600

Mr Eng earned an equal amount of money for the sale of big and small apples. There was a difference of 63 more small apples than big apples

a) which size of apples sold more, big or small apples?

4 big apples = $5

12 big apples:$15

3 small apples=$3

15 small apples=$15

63-3=60

60/3=20

small apples=15x21=315

large apples =12x21=252

Ans: Small apples sold more.

b) What is the difference in quantity sold?

small apples - big apples=

315-252=63

Solution:

large apples:5x4=20

small apples=3x9=27

($45 worth of large apples & $45 worth of small apples)

27-20=7

49 divided by 7 =7

45x2=90

90x7=630

7x27=189(small)

7x20=140(large)

Difference is 49(189-140=49)so mr gulam sold 49 more small apples than large apples

a) cost of $45 of small apples : 3x9=27

cost of $45 of large apples : 4x5=20

27-20=7

number of groups : 49\7=7

7x(45x2)=630

b)small apples sold more than large apples

c) 27x7=189

20x7=140

189-140=49

Ans : a) 630

b)small apples sold more than large apples

c) 49

12-9=3

330/3=110

if there are 110 groups, 110x3(no. of apples per grp)=330

ANSWER:

(let 'n' be the number of apples)

small apples: (n) / 3 x $5 = $5n/3

large apples: (n) / 4 x $9 = $9n/4

: (84 / 3) x $5 = $140

$9n/4 = $5n/3 + $140

$9n/4 - $5n/3 = $140

$27n/12 - $20n/12 = $140

$7n/12 = $140

$7n = $140 x 12 = $1680

n = $1680 / 7 = $240

amount received from the sale of small apples: $240/ 3 x $5 + 84 / 3 x $5 = $540

amount received from the sale of large apples: $240 / 4 x $9 = $540

total amount received: $540 x 2 = $1080

ANS: $1080

for $5 for $9

Mr Gulam received an equal sum from the sale of small apples and large apples. He sold 84 more small apples than large apples. How much did he receive from the sale of apples in total?

Method 1 :

Small apples = (x) / 3 x $5 = 5x/3 ((84/3) x $5 = $140

Large apples = (x) / 4 x $9 =9x/4

9x/4 = 5x/3 + $140

9x/4 - 5x/3 = $140

27x/12- 20x/12 = $140

7x/12 = $140

7x = $140 x 12 = $1680

x= $1680 / 7 = $240

small apples= 240/3x $5 + 84/3 x $5 = $540

large apples = 240/4 x $9 = $540

total= $540 x 2 = $1080 (ans)

Method 2=

Common multiple of 5 and 9 = 45

small apples = 45/5 = 9

$9 x 3 = 27

big apples = 45 / $9 = $5

$5 x 4 = 20

difference is= 27 - 20 =7 units

number of sets = 84 / 7 = 12

12 x $45 = $540

total = $540 x 2 = $1080 ( ans )
