A fruit seller had some apples. He sells 40% apples and still has 420 apples. Originally, he had:

588 apples

600 apples

672 apples

700 apples

Answer : Option D

Explanation :

Suppose originally he had x apples.

Then, (100 - 40)% of x = 420.

$\frac { 60 } { 100}$ xx = 420

x = $\frac { 420 \times100 } { 60 }$ = 700
