Apples cost 50 cents piece, pears 60 cents piece, bananas cheaper than pears. Grandma bought 5 pieces of fruit, there was only one banana and paid 2 euros 75 cents. How many apples and how many pears?

Correct result:

j1 =  0
h1 =  4
j2 =  1
h2 =  3
j3 =  2
h3 =  2

#### Solution:

${h}_{1}=5-1-{j}_{1}=5-1-0=4$
${j}_{2}=1$
${h}_{2}=5-1-{j}_{2}=5-1-1=3$
${j}_{3}=2$
${h}_{3}=5-1-{j}_{3}=5-1-2=2$
