Step-by-step solution

2 steps
  1. Calculate the amount of fruits processed.

    The amount processed is the total fed in minus the amount returned.

    Amount processed = Total fed in - Amount returned
    Amount processed = 14 000 - 2 900
    Amount processed = 11 100 fruits

  2. Calculate the percentage of fruits processed.

    The percentage processed is the amount processed divided by the total fed in, multiplied by 100%.

    Percentage processed = (Amount processed / Total fed in) × 100%
    Percentage processed = (11 100 / 14 000) × 100%
    Percentage processed = 0.792857... × 100%
    Percentage processed = 79.29% (rounded to two decimal places)

    So, 11 100 fruits were processed, and this represents 79.29% of the fruits fed in.
