A sweet factory produces 5 different chocolate bars. the different flavors are always produced in the same proportions, for ever
IRISSAK [1]

a. There are 933 chocolate bars

b. There are 1200 chocolate bars

c. There are 1580 chocolate bars

<h3>How to calculate the number of chocolate bars</h3>

Since there are 5 different flavors,

let

  • x = orange flavored bars,
  • y = coconut flavored bars,
  • z = coffee flavored bars,
  • a = strawberry flavored bars and
  • b = honeycomb flavored bars and
  • X = total number of bars

Since the different flavors are always produced in the same proportions, for every 4 coconut flavored bars 5 honeycomb 6 orange 1 coffee and 4 strawberry

So, the ratio of their proportions are x:y:z:a:b = 6:4:2:1:5

So, the total ratio is T = 6 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 5 = 20

<h3>a. What is the total number of chocolate bars if there are 280 orange flavored bars?</h3>

Since we have 6 orange flavored bars, the ratio of orange flavored bars to total is 6/20

So, the amount of orange flavored bars is x = 6/20 × X

Making X subject of the formula, we have

X = 20x/6

So, if there are 280 orange bars, there will be

X = 20x/6

X = 20 × 280/6

X = 5600/6

X = 933.33

X ≅ 933 chocolate bars

So, there are 933 chocolate bars

<h3>b. What is the total number of chocolate bars if there are 960 coconut flavored bars?</h3>

Since we have 4 coconut flavored bars, the ratio of coconut flavored bars to total is 4/20

So, the amount of coconut flavored bars is y = 4/20 × X

Making X subject of the formula, we have

X = 20y/4

So, if there are 960 coconut flavored bars, there will be

X = 20y/6

X = 20 × 960/4

X = 5 × 240

X = 1200 chocolate bars

So, there are 1200 chocolate bars

<h3>c. What is the total number of chocolate bars if there are 79 coffee flavored bars?</h3>

Since we have 1 coffee flavored bars, the ratio of coffee flavored bars to total is 1/20

So, the amount of coconut flavored bars is z = 1/20 × X

Making X subject of the formula, we have

X = 20z

So, if there are 79 coffee flavored bars, there will be

X = 20z

X = 20 × 79

X = 1580 chocolate bars

So, there are 1580 chocolate bars
