The number of calories in a banana is fifteen less than twice the number of calories in an apple of the same weight. Together they have a total of 141 calories. How many calories does each piece of fruit have?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let calories present in apple = x

Then as per the question, calories present in banana = 2x-15

Total calories = 141

x+2x-15=141

3x = 141+15

3x = 156

x = 52

Calories present in apple = 52 calories

Calories present in banana = 2 (52) - 15

= 104-15 = 89
