Question

Davis has ten apples. Gus is hungry and eats a fifth of them, but Davis buys twice the amount gus ate the next day. How many apples is Davis left with after the purchase?

Answer 1

whole=10
1/5 of 10= 2, Gus ate 2
2*2= 4 apples.
Davis has 8 apples, then he buys 4
He has 12 apples

Answer 2

Answer with explanation:

Number of Apples Possessed by Davis = 10

Number of Apple ate by Gus

`=(1)/(5)* 10\\\\=2`

Number of Apple bought by Davis next day

=Twice the Amount ate by Gus

= 2 × 2

=4

So, total number of Apples left with David

=10 -( Number of Apple ate by Gus)+( Number of Apple Bought by Davis next day )

=10 - 2 +4

=8+4

= 12 Apples
