(180-x) + 18 + 30 + x/2 = 180

=> 180 + 48 - x + x/2 = 180

=> -x/2 + 48 = 0

=> x/2 = 48

=> x = 48×2 = 96°

Chad is eating a 50-gram chocolate bar which contains 30% cocoa. How many grams of cocoa are in the chocolate bar?
Allushta [10]

Answer: 15 grams

If he had 100 grams of candy bar, then 30% of that is 30 grams (since 30/100 = 30%). Cut this in half and we end up with 30/2 = 15.

Another way to find the answer is to multiply 50 and 0.30 which is the decimal form of 30%. So we have 50*0.30 = 15 which is the same answer.
