Answer:
54 apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that a bag of apples has x amount of apples. Rosa has 2/3 x after baking pies then give her cousin 3/4 of them. The number of apples that Rosa have will be:
[tex]\frac{2x}{3}[/tex] - ([tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]* [tex]\frac{2x}{3}[/tex])=
[tex]\frac{2x}{3}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{6x}{12}[/tex] =
[tex]\frac{8x}{12}[/tex]- [tex]\frac{6x}{12}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{2x}{12}[/tex]= [tex]\frac{x}{6}[/tex]
If Rosa has 9 apples, then x will be:
9 apples =[tex]\frac{x}{6}[/tex]
x= 9 apples * 6= 54 apples
