Question

A produce store sold 63 red apples , if the ratio of red apples to green apples sold was 7:2 what is the combined amount of red and green apples sold

Answer 1

Let G be the number of green apples sold.

`(7)/(2)=(63)/(G)`

`7G=126`
G = 18
The combined amount of red and green apples sold is 63 + 18 = 81 apples
