Question 1076046: A school canteen has 5 flavours of crisps. 2/5 are salt and vinegar, 1/8 are cheese and onion , 1/4 are prawn and cocktail, 1/5 are ready salted and the rest are chicken flavoured. The canteen has 60 bags of crisps
Is this correct? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Not sure what is desired, but
24 are salt and vinegar
7.5 would be cheese and onion, which mathematically is correct but not if a half bag can't be used.
15 are prawn and cocktail
12 are ready salted
and that leaves 1.5 or 2.5% chicken flavored
The other way is to do by percentages
40%
12.5%
25%
20%
97.5%
