Hector picked atleast 5/9 of the total number of fruits picked from the trees.Sam picked 24 fruits, which is 1/4 of the total number of fruits picked. What is the possible number of fruits hector picked?
we know that Sam picked 24 fruits, which is ---------> 1/4 of the total number of fruits picked 24=(1/4)*x-------> x=24*4-----> 96 so the total number of fruits picked is 96
Hector picked at least 5/9 of the total number of fruits picked (5/9)*96-----> 53.33
the answer is the possible number of fruits hector picked is 53
