Question

Add 3 level scoops of mini chocolate chips and 1 level scoop of raisins to Container 1. If each scoop has the same number of items, what percent of the items in Container 1 are mini chocolate chips? (This value is known as the percent concentration of chips.) Explain how you decided. Label the container appropriately Answer: 50% because when there is only 2 variables and they are each 1 cup there is an even amount of stuff and when you ask for only one percentage that would be 50% because everything is even. Even if you asked for the percentage for the cup of raisins it would also be 50% Add 2 scoops of mini chocolate chips and 3 scoops of raisins to Container 2. What is the percent concentration of mini chocolate chips? Explain how you decided. Label the container appropriately. Stir the chips and raisins in each container to ensure that the chips and raisins are evenly mixed.

Answer 1

Answer:

Container 1  

The percentage of mini chocolate chip is 3/4 * 100= 75 % to raisins.

Container 2

The percentage of mini chocolate chip is 2/5 * 100= 40 % to raisins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Container 1  

Mini Chocolate Chips:  Raisins

3 scoops: 1 scoop

The percentage of mini chocolate chip is 3/4 * 100= 75 % to raisins.

Container 2

Mini Chocolate Chips:  Raisins

2 scoops: 3 scoop

The percentage of mini chocolate chip is 2/5 * 100= 40 % to raisins.

This is simplified with the help of the ratios . We find out the ratio of the mini chocolate to the total of both the ratios and mulitply it with 100 to get the percentage concentration.

Answer 2

estimate 1scoop chips and 2scoops rice percentage
