after giving 8 apples to her friend, John finds notices that two third of the remainder is 12.how many appledid she have all tigether

26

Step-by-step explanation:

It started with x apples.

8 were given away.

Now there are x - 8 apples.

Two thirds of the remainder is (2/3)(x - 8).

That is equal to 12.

(2/3)(x - 8) = 12

x - 8 = 18

x = 26

There were originally 26 apples.

$25

step-by-step explanation:

25 - 4.50 = 20.5

20.5 / 2 = 10.25

10.25 + 10 = 20.25

20.25 - 12.50 = 7.75

therefore the answer is $25 as shown as the first number.
