The cost of 100 fruits is rupees 500. Cost of 1 watermelon ,1 guava,1 banana respectively rupees 50,10 and 1 find the no.of fruit of each type

# of watermelons ---- x

# of guavas -------- y
# of bananas ------ 100-x-y

50x + 10y + 1(100-x-y) = 500
50x + 10y + 100 - x- y = 500
49x + 9y = 400
remember , x and y must be whole numbers
if y = 0 , x = 400/49 , closest integer is 8
if x = 0, y = 400/9 , closest integer is 44

y = (400 - 49x)/9

trying x = 0,1,2,...,8,9,10
the first solution I get is when x = 10
then y = -10 , which makes no sense

your question appears to have no integer solution.
Check my algebra, I sometimes make errors at my age.

To find the number of each type of fruit, we can set up a system of equations. Let's assume there are x watermelons, y guavas, and z bananas.

From the given information, we know that the cost of 1 watermelon is ₹50, 1 guava is ₹10, and 1 banana is ₹1. So we can write the following equations:

1. x + y + z = 100 (since the total number of fruits is 100)
2. 50x + 10y + z = 500 (since the total cost of the fruits is ₹500)

To solve this system of equations, we can use the method of substitution or elimination.

Let's solve it using the method of elimination:

1. Multiply the first equation by 50 to make the coefficients of z equal in both equations:
50x + 50y + 50z = 5000

2. Subtract the second equation from the first equation:
(50x + 10y + z) - (50x + 50y + 50z) = 500 - 5000
-40y - 49z = -4500

Now, we can solve this equation to find the values of y and z:

3. Divide the equation by -1 to simplify:
40y + 49z = 4500

4. Solve for y in terms of z by rearranging the equation:
40y = 4500 - 49z
y = (4500 - 49z) / 40

Now, we need to find values for z that satisfy this equation. Let's check the possible values of z.

Since y and z represent the number of fruits, they should be positive integers. Also, the total number of fruits is 100, so the sum of x, y, and z should be equal to 100.

Let's check the values of z from 1 to 100 to see if we get positive integer values for y:

For z = 1:
y = (4500 - 49*1) / 40 = 4410 / 40 = 110.25 (not a positive integer)

For z = 2:
y = (4500 - 49*2) / 40 = 4352 / 40 = 108.8 (not a positive integer)

Continuing this process, we find that there is no integer value of z that gives a positive integer value of y. This means there is no solution that satisfies all the conditions.

Therefore, it is not possible to determine the number of each type of fruit given the information provided.

#number of watermelons - (x)

#number of guavas - (y)
#number of bananas - (z)(100-x-y)
x+y+z=100
50x+10y+(100-x-y)=500
49x+9y=400
9y=400-49x
y=(400-49)/9
x=1
y=39
z=60
