Answer:
Frida will keep 3 apples for herself.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Number of red apples = 15
Number of green apples = 12
So
Total number of apples Frida have = [tex](12+15)=27[/tex]
Number of people to distribute (equally) upon = [tex]8[/tex]
Multiples of [tex]8[/tex] = [tex]8,16,24,34,40....[/tex]
Closest number to [tex]27[/tex] is [tex]24[/tex].
Now number of apples Frida will keep for herself =(Total number of apples) - (Apples distributes among [tex]8[/tex] people equally.)
⇒[tex](27)-(24)=3[/tex]
So our final answer is 3.
