At Suzie’s garden you can exchange vegetables and fruits instead of spending money. If you can exchange 6 cantaloupes for 12 tomatoes, 10 tomatoes for 20 grapes, and 18 grapes for 27 raspberries, how many raspberries could be exchanged for 20 cantaloupes?

Answer 1

Answer: 20 Cantaloupes will fetch 120 Raspberries.

Explanation:

C = Cantaloupes

T = Tomatoes

G = Grapes

R = Raspberries

Conversions (exchange rates):

2T/C

2 G/T

1.5 R/G

Start with 20C

20C*(2T/C) = 40T

40T*(2 G/T) = 80G

80G*(1.5 R/G) = 120R
