A fruit seller had some apples. He sells 40% apples and still has 420 apples. Originally, he had:

588 apples 600 apples 672 apples 700 apples

700 apples

Percentage of apples sold = 40% Percentage of apples he still has = 60% and 420 i.e. 60% = 420 Thus,  orginal apples = \(\frac{420 }{60 }\) x 100 = 700
