I have 7200 bags of snickers. If the rest is Hershey’s and Twix is 2/3 of snickers, how many Hershey’s are there?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 7,200 bags of snickers

Twix is 2/3 that of snickers

Hershey's is ?

First you need to find out how much Twix you have.

You will need to multiply as a fraction: 2/3*7,200/1 (2 over 3 multiplied by 7,200 over 1)

Next multiply the two numerators together (numerators are the numbers on top of a fraction and the numbers on the bottom of the fraction are called denominators)

2 * 7,200 = 14,400

Next multiply the denominators together:

3 * 1 = 3

So now your fraction is 14,400/3 (14,400 over 3)

Now divide the denominator into the numerator:

14,400 divided by 3 = 4,800

So 2/3 of the 7,200 bags of Snickers equals 4,800 Twix

Now take away the Twix from the Snickers

7,200 - 4,800 = 2,400

So now all up you have:

7,200 bags of snickers

4,800 bags of Twix
