A person buys some apples and mangoes from the market. Cost price of a mango is twice that of an apple and the selling price of a mango is thrice that of an apple. By selling an apple at twice its cost price, he makes 150% profit on the whole. Find the ratio of the number of mangoes to that of apples that he bought from the market.

Bcoz cost prices are different so we will be getting different quantities, if cost price would have been same then it must have been equal quantities.
