An apple tree has three times as many apples as the number of plums on a plum tree. If Damien picks 3/5 of the fruits from the trees, calculate the total number of plums and apples remaining on the tree if there were 180 apples on the apple tree before Damien picked any of the fruits.
Initially, the were 180//3= <<180//3=60>>60 plums on the plum tree.
When Damien picked 3/5 of the apples from the apple tree, he picked 3/5*180 = <<3/5*180=108>>108 apples
The number of apples remaining on the apple tree is 180-108= <<180-108=72>>72
The number of plums that Damien picked from the plum tree is 3/5*60 = <<3/5*60=36>>36
The number of plums remaining on the plum tree is 60-36 = <<60-36=24>>24
The total number of fruits remaining on the trees is 72 apples+24 plums = <<72+24=96>>96
