Average number of apples sold by β€˜R’ and β€˜S’ is 680 and the ratio of green apples to red apples sold by β€˜S’ is 5:7.

    Solution

    Total apples sold by β€˜P’ = 1080/1.20 = 900 Green apples sold by β€˜P’ = (900 – 100)/2 = 400 Red apples sold by β€˜P’ = 900 – 400 = 500 Green apples sold by β€˜Q’ = 3/2 Γ— 400 = 600 Red apples sold by β€˜Q’ = 1080 – 600 = 480 Red apples sold by β€˜R’ = 0.80 Γ— 480 = 384 Green apples sold by β€˜R’ = 384/1.50 = 256 Total apples sold by β€˜R’ = 256 + 384 = 640 Total apples sold by β€˜S’ = 680 Γ— 2 – 640 = 720 Green apples sold by β€˜S’ = 5/12 Γ— 720 = 300 Red apples sold by β€˜S’ = 7/12 Γ— 720 = 420 Required ratio = 400 : 300 = 4:3
