Let Fruits arrived at cannery = 100
Selected for processing = 100 20 = 80
Percentage of canned fruits = 80 (80 × 15/100) = 68% (ans)

Let fruit that arrives at cannery = 100
20% is rejected before processing. So 0.2 * 100 = 20 is rejected.
Remaining/Processed fruit = 100 - 20 = 80.
Of this fruit that is processed 15% is rejected before canning.
So, 0.15 * 80 = 12.
Fruit that is canned/remaining = 80 - 12 = 68 or 68%.
