Solution

The correct option is A 12
Total fruits in the basket = 48
three quarters of the total = apples
We know how to find three quarters of a number.
First we need to find one quarter by dividing the number by 4.
And then we need to multiply the answer by 3.
So one quarter of 48 = 48 ÷ 4 = 12

So three quarters will be = 3 x 12 = 36

Total apples = 36
Rest of the fruits =
48 - 36 = 12
