If the cafeteria sold 200 grilled cheese sandwiches, 100 tacos, and 150 grilled chicken salads, the total number of lunches sold will be 200+100+150 = 450
Grilled chicken salad sold = 150
The ratio of grilled chicken salads sold to the total number of lunches sold will be;
Let the both the parts be 'x' and 'y' x>y We know that 4x = 5y so x = 5y/4 x + y = 54 Replacing x we get (5y/4) + y = 54 (5y +4y)/4 = 54 9y = 216 y = 24 Replacing y in ' x+y = 54' we get x = 30
Hence the larger part is 30 whereas the smaller part is 24
