Of the 48 oranges 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?
First you need to find out what is 1/3 of 48 which is 16 Then 48-16 which is 32 so now you know there are 32 oranges left Ben took 8 more then David what do you think answer would be??
