If q oranges are sold for t Naira, how many oranges can be bought for p naira?
Answer Details
The correct answer is \(\frac{qp}{t}\).
Since q oranges are sold for t Naira, we can say that the cost of one orange is \(\frac{t}{q}\) Naira.
To find how many oranges can be bought for p Naira, we need to divide p by the cost of one orange:
Number of oranges = \(\frac{p}{\frac{t}{q}}\)
Simplifying, we get:
Number of oranges = \(\frac{pq}{t}\)
