It is important to do the
calculations very carefully. Otherwise there is nothing complicated about this
problem.
Let us assume the unknown number = x
Then
40x/100 = 55
40x = 55 * 100
40x = 5500
x = 5500/40
= 550/4
= 137.5
So
55 is 40% of 137.50. I hope the procedure is clear to you and in future
you can solve such problems on your own without requiring any help from
outside.This is the simplest way of solving such
problems.
I think the answer would be 15, 8•15=120, leaving 3 points left which would be an multiple choice question, hope this helps:))

<em>Question:</em>
<em>If one basket contains five bottles each weighing 7 1/4 and the other basket has six apples each weighing 6 1/2 ounces. Which basket is heavier and by how much
?</em>
Answer:
The basket of bottles weighs more than the basket of apples by 
ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Determine which basket is heavy
and by how much?
First, we need the total weight of each basket.
For the bottles' basket
For the bottles' basket
By comparing both total weights, 
Hence:
The basket of bottles weighs more than the basket of apples
Calculating the difference:
Hence:
It weighs more by ounces
Answer:
The answer is 2,484.
Step-by-step explanation:
