Mr Aziz had some apples. He sold 1/5 of the apples on Monday and

80 apples on Tuesday. In the end, he was left 30% of the apples he

had at first. How many apples did he have in the end?

Let the number of apples be x

then

x - x/5 - 80 = 3x/10

4x/5 - 3x/10 = 80

5x = 80 * 10

x = 160

------

then on monday he sold 32 apples

tuesday = 80 apples

then he should have 48 apples remaining

so

3*160/100 = 48

so the answer is 160 apples
