Question

2.

Answer 1

Answer: 80 pieces of fruit

Explanation:
Let’s find out the amount of trees Mr Champion has.
He has 14 in total. 1 apple tree and 1 plum tree, and the rest are divided evenly among apricot, pear and peach trees. This means:
1 apple tree + 1 plum tree = 2 trees
14 - 2 = 12 trees
12 / 3 (varieties of trees) = 4
In conclusion, he has
1 apple tree, 1 plum tree, 4 apricot, pear and peach trees.

Now let’s go to the section where he picks the fruit.
6 apricots from 4 trees
10 peaches from 4 trees
3 pears from 4 trees
4 apples from 1 tree

This means:
(6 x 4) + (10 x 4) + (3 x 4) + (4 x 1) = total pieces of fruit picked

24 + 40 + 12 + 4 = total pieces of fruit picked

Now, you add up those four numbers, and you have your answer, 80.



Hope this helps!
