A fruit seller buys 712 fruits, of which 3/4 are apples. Of all the apples that he bought, 1/3 were found to
be rotten. If he sold all the good apples at Rs. 5 1/4 each. How much money did he receive on selling all
the good apples?
3 by 4 × 712 - 178 = 534 apples
534 - 178 × 1by 3 = 178
3 by 4 × 712 - 178 = 534 apples
534 - 178 × 1by 3 = 178
712 * .75 = Apples
2/3 Apples * 514 = ?
To determine the amount of money the fruit seller received on selling all the good apples, we need to follow these steps:
Step 1: Find the total number of apples the fruit seller bought.
The fruit seller bought 712 fruits, and 3/4 of them are apples. To calculate the total number of apples, we multiply the total number of fruits by the fraction representing the proportion of apples:
Total number of apples = 712 * 3/4 = 534 apples
Step 2: Calculate the number of rotten apples.
Out of all the apples, 1/3 were found to be rotten. To find the number of rotten apples, we multiply the total number of apples by the fraction representing the proportion of rotten apples:
Number of rotten apples = 534 * 1/3 = 178 apples
Step 3: Calculate the number of good apples.
To find the number of good apples, we subtract the number of rotten apples from the total number of apples:
Number of good apples = Total number of apples - Number of rotten apples = 534 - 178 = 356 apples
Step 4: Calculate the total amount of money received on selling all the good apples.
The fruit seller sold all the good apples at Rs. 514 each. To calculate the total amount of money received, we multiply the number of good apples by the selling price per apple:
Total amount received = Number of good apples * Selling price per apple = 356 * 514 = Rs. 183,304
Therefore, the fruit seller received Rs. 183,304 on selling all the good apples.
