The ratio of apples to oranges in a basket is 3:2. If 12
apples are removed and 18 oranges are added, then the number of apples and oranges becomes equal. Find the original number of oranges in the basket.Solution
ATQ,
Let the number of apples and oranges be '3n' and '2n', respectively.
So, 3n - 12 = 2n + 18
Or, 'n' = 30
Therefore, number of oranges = 30 × 2 = 60
