Can somebody explain the grapefruit and orange question to me?
Chessisthebest so basically, the farmer took 120 grapefruits and x oranges. 1/10 (10%) of grapefruits look like oranges and 1/10 (10%) of oranges look like grapefruit. also 1/5 (20%) of all fruit looks like grapefruit (this incl. 90% of grapefruit - i.e. 108 grapefruits and x/10 oranges.) if we make an equation, we should have x+120/5 = x/10 + 108. if you solve this equation, you should get the answer of 840.
MMHS broo how we had teachers walking around our desk
yess a lot of ppl in my school did it
did anyone actually finish every question without guessing?
bitter i guessed abt 2
So i only realised a few hours after doing the amc that i messed uo the rectangle and rod questions cuz i’m quite sure that the rectangle one was 674 and the rods questions was 146.
Btw was the one about fruits question 27 or 28?
MMHS no i corrected them myselves
my whole year was forced to do it... actually hell im not good enough at maths for this 
pearl lol ur unlucky we only had selected students do it
clover Thank you!
wow now that i realise, i just needed to read the question properly for the oranges one because i could've easily done it but whatever, i was confident with like 85-90% of the test apart from like the last 5 questions
does anyone remember the find the area of the green figure, i think it was 8 or smth because each of the not whole parts had a corresponding part either next to it or across it which would make it whole
