Last year the apple orchard experienced a drought and did not produce many apples. But this year, the
apple orchard produced 45 thousand Granny Smith apples and 9 hundred Red Delicious apples, which is
10 times as many apples as last year. How many apples did the orchard produce last year?
45 thousands 9 hundreds= 45,900
45,900 divided by 10= 4,590
