Answer 2

Problem Analysis

We are given two baskets of apples, with the second basket having three times as many apples as the first basket. After adding 6 kg of apples to the first basket and removing 2 kg of apples from the second basket, the number of apples in both baskets becomes equal. We need to determine the number of apples in the first basket.

Solution

Let's assume that the number of apples in the first basket is x. According to the problem, the number of apples in the second basket is three times the number of apples in the first basket, so the number of apples in the second basket is 3x.

After adding 6 kg of apples to the first basket, the total weight of apples in the first basket becomes x + 6 kg. Similarly, after removing 2 kg of apples from the second basket, the total weight of apples in the second basket becomes 3x - 2 kg.

According to the problem, the number of apples in both baskets becomes equal after these operations. Therefore, we can set up the following equation:

x + 6 = 3x - 2

Simplifying the equation, we get:

2x = 8

Solving for x, we find:

x = 4

Therefore, there were 4 apples in the first basket.

Answer

There were 4 apples in the first basket.
