Question

Father has 240 oranges in a bag . His neighbor gets 25% of it , his niece gets 1/3 of the reminder and the rest were sold in bags of 5 for 15 . How much money did he earn from the oranges he sold ?​

Answer 1

he made $360

Explanation:

25% of 240

240 × 25 ÷ 100 = 60

his neighbor got 60 orange

remainder is 3/4 or 75 %

75% of 240

240 × 75 ÷ 100 = 180

1/3 of 180

1/3 × 180 = 60

he niece got 60 orange

remainder of orange is 2/3

2/3 = 2/3 × 180 = 120

120 ÷ 5 = 24

he sold 24 bags of orange

24 × 15 = $360

he made $360 from his orange
