Answer: 360 apples were taken

Explanation:

Here, we are asked to find the number of apples taken, which means it is the difference between original and after. So the expression we are going to use is: Original-After=number of apples taken

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given

Original=409 apples

After=49 apples

Solve

Original - After=409 - 49=360 apples

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions
