Xavier had some fruits . He shared ⅖ of the fruits to his friends. If he shared 18 fruits to his friends, how many fruits did he have?​

Sagot :

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many fruits Xavier had originally, we can set up a proportion based on the information given.

Let the total number of fruits Xavier had be represented by x.

Xavier shared \frac{2}{5} of the fruits with his friends, which is equal to 18 fruits shared.

Therefore, we can set up the following proportion:

\frac{2}{5} \times x = 18

Solving for x:

x = \frac{18}{\frac{2}{5}}

x = 18 \times \frac{5}{2}

x = 45

So, Xavier originally had 45 fruits.
