A basket contains apples, bananas, and oranges. The total number of apples and bananas is 88. The total number of apples and oranges is 80. The total number of bananas and oranges is 64. Then the number of apples is


Correct Answer: 52

Adding the three given totals counts every fruit exactly twice, so twice the number of fruits is $$88 + 80 + 64 = 232$$, and the basket holds 116 fruits in all. The bananas and oranges together are 64, so the number of apples is $$116 - 64 = 52$$.
