1. A fruit seller had some apples. He sold 40% of he apples and still has 420 apples left. How many apples did he have initially?

  • A. 588
  • B. 588
  • C. 588
  • D. 588

Answer: Option D

Explanation:

Apples remain unsold = ( 100 - 40) = 60%

60% = 420 apples

1 % = 420/60 apples

100% = ( 420×100)/60 apples = 700 apples

He hand 700 apples initially.
