Manoj has a certain amount of money with him. He can buy either 60 apples or 80 mangoes. He wants to spend only 40% of his money. So, he buys 28 mangoes and some apples. Find the number of apples purchased by Manoj.1). 52). 303). 34). 40

Answer»

Let’s assume Manoj has RS. X in total.

AMOUNT required to buy either 60 APPLES = Amount required to by 80 MANGOES = X

Amount spent in buying 28 mangoes $(= X \TIMES \frac{{28}}{{80}} = 0.35X)$

Amount Manoj wants to spend = 40% of X = 0.4X

Remaining amount = 0.4X – 0.35X = 0.05X

Number of apples that can be bought in remaining amount $(= 60 \times \frac{{0.05X}}{X} = 3)$
