- A shopkeeper bought 600 oranges and 400 bananas.
Question 1:
A shopkeeper bought 600 oranges and 400 bananas. He found 15% of oranges and 8% of bananas were rotten. Find the percentage of fruits in good condition. A. 23.4%
B. 54.8%
C. 64.5%
D. 87.8%
Feedback Total number of fruits shopkeeper bought = 600 + 400 = 1000
Number of rotten oranges = 15% of 600
= 15/100 × 600
= 9000/100
= 90
Number of rotten bananas = 8% of 400
= 8/100 × 400
= 3200/100
= 32
Therefore, total number of rotten fruits = 90 + 32 = 122
Therefore Number of fruits in good condition = 1000 - 122 = 878
Therefore Percentage of fruits in good condition = (878/1000 × 100)%
= (87800/1000)%
= 87.8%
Number of rotten oranges = 15% of 600
= 15/100 × 600
= 9000/100
= 90
Number of rotten bananas = 8% of 400
= 8/100 × 400
= 3200/100
= 32
Therefore, total number of rotten fruits = 90 + 32 = 122
Therefore Number of fruits in good condition = 1000 - 122 = 878
Therefore Percentage of fruits in good condition = (878/1000 × 100)%
= (87800/1000)%
= 87.8%
