The salesman sold 120 kg of pears in the morning and 240 kg of pears in the afternoon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of pears sold in the morning.

2x, amount of pears sold in the afternoon.

x + 2x = 360 kg

Solution:

x + 2x = 360 kg

3x = 360 kg

3x/3 = 360 kg/3

x = 120

He sold 120 kg of pears in the morning.

2x = 2(120 kg) = 240 kg

He sold 240 kg of pears in the afternoon.
