Question

25% of the fruits collected were ripe. Ìf 50 fruits were ripe, find the total number of fruits collected.

Answer 1

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of fruits collected be y.

Since 25% of fruits were ripe, if we multiply the total no. with 25%, we get the number of ripe fruits, which is 50, given.

y x 25% = 50

y = 50 / 25%

y = 50 / 0.25

y = 200

Therefore, the total number of fruits collected is 200.
