Gabriel has two fewer grapes than Frank.

Pls give answer and solution as well. Much appreciated

Answer 1

Answer:

40 grapes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Frank has x grapes,

No. of grapes Gabriel has = (x-2) grapes

No. of grapes Himali has = 5 × x

                                         = 5x grapes

x-2 = 6

  x = 6 + 2

     = 8

5x = 8 × 5

     = 40

Hence, Himali has 40 grapes.
