उत्तर
Let the quantity of apples and bananas purchased be ‘x’ and ‘y’
By the given condition
x + y = 50 ...(1)
Cost of one kg of apple = `1800/x`
Cost of one kg of banana = `600/y`
By the given condition
One kg of apple = `2((600))/y`
Total cost of fruits purchased = 1800 + 600
x × 2 `((600))/y + y ((600))/y` = 2400
`(1200x)/y` = 2400 – 600
`(1200x)/y` = 1800
1200 x = 1800 × y
x = `(1800x)/(1200) = (3y)/(2)`
Substitute the value of x in (1)
`(3y)/(2) + y` = 50
`(5y)/(2)` = 50
5y = 100 ⇒ y = `100/5` = 20
x = `(3y)/(2) = (3 xx 20)/2`
= 30
The quantity of apples = 30 kg
The quantity of bananas = 20 kg
