For this item, we let x be the amount of the white chocolate in the candy. With this representation and given that there is 3 lbs of peppermint sticks, the total mass of the candy is x+3.

Since white chocolate comprises the 75% of the candy, we make an equation that is,
                                    x / (x + 3) = 0.75
The value of x from the equation is 9 lbs.

Well, from those 560, 200 are from her salary, and the rest is commissions from sales, so.... 360 is the 5.5% she's got, now, if we take "x" to be the 100% for the sales, then

\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
360&5.5\\
x&100
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{300}{x}=\cfrac{5.5}{100}

solve for "x".
