of the oranges 48 in a carton, one-third of them were rotten. ben and david took the remaining good oranges. if ben took 8 more oranges than david how many oranges did david take

Answer :

Number of Good Oranges = 2/3 * 48 = 32

Now, Let the number of Oranges taken by David = x
Taken by Ben = x + 8

It is given that, x + x+8 = 32
2x = 32 - 8
x = 24/2
x = 12

In short, David takes 12 Oranges

Hope this helps!
