Question

PLEASEEE HELP!!! Need help pls

Answer 1

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of an apple = twice of the weight of a lemon

Weight of an apple = 2(weight of a lemon)

x = 2y ------(1)

x = weight of an apple

y = weight of a lemon

Number of apples in a box = 16

Weight of the apple box (A) = 16x

Number of lemons in another box = 24

Weight of the lemon box (B) = 24y

Therefore, $\frac{A}{B}=\frac{16x}{24y}$

$\frac{A}{B}=\frac{2x}{3y}$

$\frac{A}{B}=\frac{2(2y)}{3y}$ [From equation (1)]

$\frac{A}{B}=\frac{4y}{3y}$

$\frac{A}{B}=\frac{4}{3}$

Option A will be the correct option.
