- Let m denotes mangoes and o denotes oranges.
5m + 4o = 7m + o
=> 3o = 2m
=> m/o = 3/2
Therefore ratio of Mangoes to Oranges is 3:2 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(38) No(0)
- 3:2 is the ratio of mango to orange.
Let the cost of 1 mango = x
and that of 1 orange = y
5x + 4y = 3x + 7y
=> 5x-3x = 7y-4y
=> 2x = 3y
=> x/y = 3/2
Ratio = 3 : 2 for mango to orange. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(10) No(7)

- let no of mangoes=x
no of oranges=y
from question,
5*x+4*y=7*x+y
2x=3y
x/y=3/2
