Answer:

9,840 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that in an apple farm each year, about eighteen percent of the collected apples must be thrown out because of rot.

To find the number of apples that survive for the farmer to sell, we need to find 82% of 12,000. As 18% apples must be thrown each year, so left apples (100-18=82) will be available to sell.

\text{Apples survive for the farmer to sell}=12000\times \frac{82}{100}

\text{Apples survive for the farmer to sell}=120\times 82

\text{Apples survive for the farmer to sell}=9840

Therefore, 9,840 apples survive for the farmer to sell.
