120 / 4 = 30 apples she bought
30/6 = 5 free apples

The friend bought 18 apples for $72.
6 * 4 = 24
so 24 dollars for every bag of 7 apples

120/24 = 5 bags of 7 apples

you got one free in each bag, so 5 free

5*7 = 35 apples total

friend bought 21/7 = 3 bags for $24 each. 3 * 24 = 72 dollars

$4 for an apple is ridiculous
