This problem can be solved by understanding percentages. If the fruit seller sells 60% of the oranges, the remaining oranges represent the difference from 100%. We can then set up a simple equation to find the total number of oranges.
The fruit seller sells 60% of the oranges. So, the percentage of oranges remaining is:
\[ 100\% - 60\% = 40\% \]We are told that 380 oranges are still left. This means that 40% of the original total number of oranges is equal to 380.
Let \(T\) be the total number of oranges originally.
\[ 40\% \text{ of } T = 380 \]or
\[ \frac{40}{100} \times T = 380 \]From the equation \(0.40 \times T = 380\), we can find \(T\) by dividing 380 by 0.40:
\[ T = \frac{380}{0.40} \] \[ T = \frac{380}{\frac{40}{100}} \] \[ T = \frac{380 \times 100}{40} \] \[ T = \frac{38000}{40} \] \[ T = 950 \]So, originally, the fruit seller had 950 oranges.
