53. The ratio of apple over orange = 3:2 The total number of fruits are 60 pieces. Now, find the total number of apples and total number of oranges. => first, let’s add 2 + 3 = 5 Thus, we have 5 division for 60 pieces fruits, => 60 / 5 => 12 let’s solve for the apple => 12 x 3 = 36 Now. The orange => 12 * 2 = 24 => 36 + 24 = 60 Thus the ratio is 36 : 24
