There are 16 fruits in each of the boxes found under the stairs.
<h3>What is an
equation?</h3>
An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
Let x represent the number of pears, hence:
Number of fruit in first box = 12 + (1/9)x
Number of fruit in second box = number of fruit in third box = (8/9)x ÷ 2 = (4/9)x
Therefore:
12 + (1/9)x = (4/9)x
x = 36
First box = second box = third box = (4/9) * 36 = 16
There are 16 fruits in each of the boxes found under the stairs.

Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helps. . .
Is/of = %/100 plug the numbers in 24/x = 16/100 then cross multiply then you get 2400 = 16x so you get x by itself so you would have to divide by 16. 2400/16 = 16x/16 the 16 on the x side cancel out so you get x = 150 (I used proportions)
