Answer 1

are u sure?

Answer 2

its 190

Answer 3

To find the fraction of the total apples picked that were sold as fresh fruit, we need to know the total number of apples picked initially. However, this information is not provided in the question. Therefore, the answer is "not enough information."

Answer 4

I apologize for the confusion. Let's calculate the fraction of the total apples picked that were sold as fresh fruit.

Let's assume that Sara picked a total of X apples initially.

She discarded 110 apples as defective, so the number of apples remaining is (X - 110).

Out of the remaining apples, 300 were made into cider, so the number of apples sold as fresh fruit is ((X - 110) - 300).

The fraction of the total apples picked that were sold as fresh fruit is:

((X - 110) - 300) / X

Since we don't know the initial number of apples picked (X), we still cannot determine the exact fraction. Therefore, the answer remains "not enough information."
