Respuesta :

Answer:

David took 16 oranges.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Total number of oranges = 48

Oranges rotten =

[tex]\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Number of oranges rotten =

[tex]\dfrac{1}{3}\times 48\\\\=16[/tex]

There were 16 rotten oranges.

Number of good oranges left =

[tex]= 48-16\\=32[/tex]

These are equally divided among Ben and David.

Number of oranges each Ben and David get =

[tex]\dfrac{32}{2} = 16[/tex]

Thus, David took 16 oranges.
