Given:-

To Find :-

Solution :-

According to the question, box has 120 mangoes . The number of mangoes he sold will be ,

$\longrightarrow$ n(sold) = 60% of 120

$\longrightarrow$ n(sold) = 60/100 × 120

$\longrightarrow$ n(sold) = 3/5 × 120

$\longrightarrow$ n(sold) = 72

Hence the number of mangoes left will be ,

$\longrightarrow$ n(left) = 120 - 72

$\longrightarrow$ n(left) = 48

Hence the number of mangoes left is 48.
