Question

    A fruit vendor sold 150 apples on Friday. On Saturday, the

    number of apples sold was 10% more than Friday, and on Sunday it was 20% less than Friday. What is the average number of apples sold over these three days?
    A 125 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 145 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 170 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 225 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Number of apples sold on Saturday = 150 × 1.10 = 165

    Number of apples sold on Sunday = 150 × 0.80 = 120

    So, required average = (150 + 165 + 120) ÷ 3 = 145
