Pierre can make 3 liters of chocolate sauce from 450 grams of chocolate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Chocolate used to make 200 ml of chocolate sauce = 30 grams

Ratio of chocolate to milliliters of chocolate sauce = 30:200

Let,

x be the milliliters of sauce made from 450 grams of chocolate

Ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce = x:450

Using proportion;

Ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce:: ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce

$30:200::450:x$

Product of extreme = Product of mean

$30*x=200*450\\30x=90000$

Dividing both sides by 30

$\frac{30x}{30}=\frac{90000}{30}\\x=3000$

450 grams of chocolate will make 3000 milliliters of chocolate sauce.

We will convert this in liters.

1 liter = 1000 ml

3000 ml = $\frac{3000}{1000}$ = 3 liters

Pierre can make 3 liters of chocolate sauce from 450 grams of chocolate.

maria [59]

The final price of the item is $22,644

The initial discount of 10% leaves the price at 90% of the retail value:
$\frac{x}{34000} = \frac{90}{100}$
cross multiply to solve for x:
100x = 3,060,000
x = 30,600
This new price is then discounted 26%, which means the final price is 74% of $30,600:
$\frac{x}{30600} = \frac{74}{100}$
cross multiply to solve for x:
100x = 2,264,400
x = 22,644
The final price of the home entertainment system is $22,644
