Answer 1

Answer:

44 pears and 52 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

pears are 8 more than apple so 52-8 = 44

Answer 2

Number of apples and pears in a box is equals to $30$ and $22$ respectively.

What is number?

" Number is defined as the count of any given quantity as per given condition."

According to the question,

Given,

Total number of apples $= 52$

$'x'$ represents the number of pears

$'x+ 8'$ represents the number of apples

As per the given condition required equation we get,

$x + x + 8 = 52\\\\\implies 2x = 52-8\\\\\implies x = \frac{44}{2} \\\\\implies x = 22$

number of pears $= 22$

number of apples $= 22+8$

                              $=30$

Hence, number of apples and pears in a box is equals to $30$ and $22$ respectively.
