Tania has five baskets containing a total of 58 fruits. There are 18 mangoes in one basket, 10 pears in another, 12 pawpaws in another and the last 2 contain the same number of kiwi and lemon respectively, how many lemons are there? Let's be accurate as possible.
The sum of mangoes, pears and pawpaws is 18 + 10 + 12 = 40. The total number of fruits is 58 so the last two baskets contain 58 - 40 = 18 fruits. Each of the last two baskets contains an equal amount of fruits which is 18 / 2 = 9 fruits.
The answer: 9.
