there was a total of 400 oranges and mangoes at a fruit stall.3/8 of these fruits were mangoes.each orange was priced at 40 cents,and each mango was priced at 60 cents.how much would mr.mead make if he sold 2/3 of the mangoes and 4/5 of the oranges?

Respuesta :

Answer:

First find the number of Mango and oranges. 400 divided by 8 = 50. We use 8 because it is the whole part of the percentage. Since, there is 3/8 mangoes, multiply 50* 3= 150 mangoes and 50*5= 250 oranges.

2/3 of 150=100 mangoes. You would find this by dividing 150/3=50 then multiply by 2.

4/5 of 250= 200 oranges. You would find this by dividing 250/5=50 then multiply by 4.

$.40*100= $40.00 mangoes

$.60*200= $120.00 oranges

Mr. Mead would make $160.00
