Question

A box of chocolates contains milk chocolates and dark chocolates in the ratio 4:3
The box contains 35 chocolates
how many milk chocolates are there in the box?

Answer 1

Answer:

20 milk chocolates

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is adding together 4 + 3. You will get 7. This is the total number of units in the box.

Then, divide 35 by 7. You will get 5 as the answer.

To find the number of milk chocolates, multiply 5 and 4. You will get 20 as the answer.

Answer 2

4x+3x=35
7x=35
x=5

milk chocolate 4(5) = 20
dark chocolate 3(5) = 15
