A farmer sells 8.6 kilograms of apples and pears at the farmer's market. 4/5 of this weight is pears, and the rest is apples. How many kilograms of apples did she sell at the farmer's market?

Weight of apples = 1.72 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total mass of sale = 8.6 kg

Pears weight = 4/5 of total weight

Find:

Weight of apples

Computation:

Weight of apples = [1 - 4/5]Total mass of sale

Weight of apples = [1/5]8.6

Weight of apples = 1.72 kg

1/800 is the right answer

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
