1) Apples sold by Harold's Harvest is ~25% of total fruit sale by Harold's Harvest.
So total fruit sale will be 4*140 ~ 560

Percentage of dates ~ 60%(slightly less than 60)

So number of dates = 0.6*560 = 336 (slightly less than 336)
Hence, B

2) Apple percentage in EE ~ 15%
Apple Percentage in GG ~ 30%
Total Fruits sold in EE = 368
Total Fruits sold in GG = 127

Apples sold in EE = 0.15*368 = ~55
Apples sold in GG = 0.3*127 = ~38

Hence, A

For the first question, I considered Apples 28% and Dates 56%. The result of my calculations was 280 (A). Are the answers not too close for a reasonable level of approximation?
