A fruit seller initially had 'm' kg of apples. He sold 56% of these apples to a customer and was still left with 110 kg of apples. What is the value of 'm'?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 250.
Calculations:
Total number of apples = m
Unsold apples = 44% of m = 0.44m
According to the question;
⇒ 0.44m = 110
⇒ m = 110/0.44 = 250
