Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that r is inversely proportional to s then the equation relating them is

r = $\frac{k}{s}$ ← k is the constant of proportion

To find k use the condition r = 16 when s = 3

k = rs = 16 × 3 = 48

r = $\frac{48}{s}$ ← equation of variation → B

A box of 42 chocolates contains milk and dark chocolates in the ratio of 3:4. How many chocolates of each type there are?

Elza [17]

<h2>Answer:The number of milk chocolates are 18 and the number of dark chocolates are 24.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of milk chocolates be $m$ .

Let the number of dark chocolates be $d$ .

Given that the box contains the milk and dark chocolates in the ratio $3:4$ .

So, $\frac{m}{d}=\frac{3}{4}$ ...(i)

Given that the total number of chocolates are $42$ .

So, $m+d=42$ . ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii),

$m+\frac{4}{3}m=42$

$\frac{7}{3}m=42$

$m=18$

$d=\frac{4}{3}m=\frac{4}{3}\times 18=24$

So,the number of milk chocolates are $18$ and the number of dark chocolates are $24$ .
