1.Mark bought some fruits, 1/5 of the
fruits are avocados, 1/3 are star apples
and 2/7 of  the remainder are mangoes. If 3. Jeffrey traveled from Town Q to Town R.
there are 18 mangoes, how many star he walked a third of the total distance.
apples are there? Then he  took a bus for the 25% of the
remaining journey and a taxi for the rest
Answer: of the journey.  How far is Town Q from
Town R if Jeffrey traveled a distance of 18
Let x be the total number of foods. km by taxi?
x=Avocadoes + Starapple + Remainder Answer:
x= 1/5 x + 1/3 x + remainder Let x be the total distance.
Remainder = x – 1/5 x + 1/3 x Let y be the remaining.
Remainder= 7/ 15 x x= ¼ x + y
Mangoes = 2/7 (remainder) = 18 y= ¼ y + 18
2/7 (7/15 x) =18 y = 24
x=135 x= 1/3 x + y

x= 1/3 x + 24
Starapples = 1/3 x
x= 36 km.
Starapples = 1/3 (135)

Starapples = 45 4. Suppose a student earns the following
