The number of apples sold as fresh fruit can be found by subtracting the number of defective apples discarded from the total number of apples picked.
Total number of apples picked: 200
Number of defective apples discarded: 110
Apples sold as fresh fruit = Total number of apples picked - Number of defective apples discarded
= 200 - 110
= 90
Therefore, the correct answer is 90.

A diver searches for a sunken treasure that is 97.2 feet below the surface. What is the diver’s elevation when he is 23
of the way down?(1 point)
-32.4 ft
-145.8 ft
-48.5 ft
-64.8 ft
To find the diver's elevation when he is 23% of the way down, we need to calculate 23% of the total depth of the treasure.
Total depth of the treasure = 97.2 ft
23% of 97.2 ft = (23/100) * 97.2 ft = 22.356 ft
Since the diver is going down, the elevation will be negative. Therefore, the diver's elevation when he is 23% of the way down is -22.356 ft.
Therefore, the correct answer is -22.356 ft. However, none of the given answer choices match this exact value.
