Question

The cost price of a crate of 180 apples cost RM 81. The greengrocer threw away the bad

ones and sold the remaining at RM0.90 each. He made a profit of RM45.How many
apples were bad?​

Answer 1

130 apples.

Explanation:

RM45 divide by RM 0.90

=50

So, 50 apples were sold.

To find the bad apples, we need to subtract 50 from 180.

180-50= 130.

The number of bad apples is 130.
