Answer: 8 mangoes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To find the total number of mangoes Peter had, add 8 and 24 which gives you 32. 8 + 24 = 32.

2. If Peter had an equal number of mangoes in each bag, and a total number of 32 mangoes, then you must divide the total number of mangoes by the number of bags, which is 4. 32 ÷ 4 = 8. Therefore, there were 8 mangoes in each bag.
