Answer 2

Given:-

• From a box of 120 mangoes, Brent sold 60%.

To Find :-

• How many mangoes are left .

Solution :-

According to the question, box has 120 mangoes . The number of mangoes he sold will be ,

$\longrightarrow$ n(sold) = 60% of 120

$\longrightarrow$ n(sold) = 60/100 × 120

$\longrightarrow$ n(sold) = 3/5 × 120

$\longrightarrow$ n(sold) = 72

Hence the number of mangoes left will be ,

$\longrightarrow$ n(left) = 120 - 72

$\longrightarrow$ n(left) = 48

Hence the number of mangoes left is 48.
