a bowl of fruit contains 10 apples and 23 oranges . how many oranges must be removed so that 50 % of the pieces of fruit in the bowl will be apples ?
"number of apples = 10 number of oranges = 23 let number of oranges that must be removed so that 50 % of pieces of fruit in bowl will be apples = x total number of fruits after x oranges are removed = 10 + ( 23 - x ) = 33 - x 10 / ( 33 - x ) = 5 / 10 = > 20 = 33 - x = > x = 13 answer b"
divide(subtract(multiply(add(10, 23), divide(50, const_100)), 10), divide(50, const_100))
