if you cann get 5candies for 7dollars, then how many candies will 33 dollars get you?
... This isn't in the right section.
That's math, not chem.
the answer though is, 23.
Use ratio and proportion.
(5/7)=(x/33)
solve for x.
To find out how many candies you can get for 33 dollars, you need to determine the cost of one candy using the given information.
First, you need to find the cost of one candy by dividing the total cost by the number of candies:
Cost per candy = Total cost / Number of candies
= 7 dollars / 5 candies
= 1.4 dollars
Now, you know that one candy costs 1.4 dollars.
To determine how many candies you can get for 33 dollars, you need to divide the total amount of money by the cost per candy:
Number of candies = Total money / Cost per candy
= 33 dollars / 1.4 dollars
≈ 23.57 candies
Since you cannot have a fraction of a candy, you would round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, for 33 dollars, you can get approximately 23 candies.
