Answer:

The portion of the initial amount that was given away is:

= 0.40

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of apples available = 10

Number of those apples given to a friend for Christmas = 4

The portion given away = 4/10 = 0.4

This represents 40% of the whole.

b) The portion given away to the friend for Christmas is a proportion of the whole.  In this case, it represents just 40% of the 10 apples.  This means that only 60% or 0.60 of the original apples are still available or on hand because 40% had been given away.
