This means that for every 5 kilograms of fruit, you'll get 3 kilograms of sugar.
----------------
Let's divide 8 into 5 parts. 8/5 = 5/5 + 3/5 = 1.0 + 0.6 = 1.6
----------------
1.6 x 3 = 3 + 1.8 = 4.8
-------------------
This means that within 8 kg of fruit you'll find 4.8 kg of sugar.

Call the amount of apples Fatima bought as x.
She gave half of the apple to Salma -> x : 2
Then she gave Maha 5 apples -> x : 2 - 5
She is left with 3 apples, so we have the equation x : 2 - 5 = 3
Solve for x :
x = (3+5) x 2 = 16.
