Max has 40 fruits consisting of Apples, Mangos, and Peaches. Max has 5 more Apples than Mangos. He also
has four times as many Apples as Peaches. How many Apples does Max have?

Respuesta :

Answer:7.5 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of mangoes be represented by m

Max has 5 more Apples than Mangos.

Therefore apples = m + 5

Max has four times as many Apples as Peaches. Therefore, peaches = 4(m+5) = 4m + 20

Mangoes = m

Apples = m+5

Peaches = 4m+20

Mangoes + Apples + Peaches = 40

m + m+5 + 4m+ 20 = 40

6m+25 = 40

6m = 40 - 25

6m = 15

m = 15/6

m = 2.5

Apples = m+5 = 2.5 + 5 = 7.5

Max has 7.5 apples
