During the first hour of operation the farm stand owner sold 15% of the apples he had. on the second hour he sold 20% of the remaining apples. on the third hour he sold 25% of the remaining apples, and so on, selling 5% more each following hour. if during the third hour he sold 34 kg of apples, how many kilograms of apples did he have initially?

Initially he had 200 kg of apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x kg be the amount of apples the farm stand initially had.

During the first hour of operation the farm stand owner sold 15% of the apples he had, then he sold kg of apples and kg of apples left.

On the second hour he sold 20% of the remaining apples, then he sold kg of apples and kg of apples left.

On the third hour he sold 25% of the remaining apples, then during the third hour he sold kg of apples.

If during the third hour he sold 34 kg of apples, then

c.
