                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Let the number of oranges in the first basket be x. 
 ∴ Number of oranges in the second basket = 640 – x
 According to the question,x − x = 640 – x + x 5 5 = 640 −  x − x  5 ⇒ 4x = 640 – 4x 5 5 ⇒ 4x + 4x = 640 5 5 ⇒ 8x = 640 ⇒ 8x = 640 × 5 = 640 5 ⇒ 
 x =640 × 5 = 400 8 Correct Option: CLet the number of oranges in the first basket be x. 
 ∴ Number of oranges in the second basket = 640 – x
 According to the question,x − x = 640 – x + x 5 5 = 640 −  x − x  5 ⇒ 4x = 640 – 4x 5 5 ⇒ 4x + 4x = 640 5 5 ⇒ 8x = 640 ⇒ 8x = 640 × 5 = 640 5 ⇒ 
 x =640 × 5 = 400 8
