(4 2/3) / (4 1/5) = 1.111
let x represent the number of apples and y represent the number of oranges.
TOTAL: x + y = 112
y = 112 - x
PEELED: 

3x = 4y
3x = 4(112 - x)
3x = 448 - 4x
7x = 448
x = 64
y = 112 - x
= 112 - 64
= 48
a) There are 64 apples and 48 oranges
Peeled apples:
= 3(8) = 24
Unpeeled apples: 64 - 24 = 40
Unpeeled - Peeled: 40 - 24 - 16
b) there are 16 more unpeeled apples than peeled apples
Answer:
x = 6 and y = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
- 4 x - 2 y = -12.......equ No 1
4 x + 8y = - 24.......equ No 2
Adding equ No 1 and equ No 2
6 y = - 36
∴ y = - 6
substitute y = - 6 in equ No 2
4 x + 8 y = -24
4 x + 8 ×( -6) = - 24
4 x - 48 = -24
4 x = -24 + 48
4 x = 24
∴ x = 6
x = 6 and y = - 6
