After giving away 200g of sweets, Andy had (2/3) of the sweets left. He then packed the remaining sweets equally into bags of (1/10) kg each.
How many bags of sweets did Andy have?
Wow, you had to wait all of 15 minutes !!!
so (1/3)x = 200
x = 600 , she had 600 grams
and has 400 g left which she bags in 100 g.
So how many bags must she use ????
Thanks...
uh--- 200g?
that wasn't the question.
How many bags ?
oh yes..
uh-- i still don't get it
How do you calculate how many bags there are, when all the question is giving you are grams of the lollies, and grams of the bag?
clearly you did not read the part where it said
bags of (1/10) kg each
...
ugghhhh
bags of (1/10) kg each, then??
then what?
that's the part where I'm confused.
HOW DO YOU CALCULATE??
