225 - 30 = 195 sq cm
The missing pieces strategy is another method to compare two fractions. To tell which number is larger, you need to see which one is missing less. For example, you have 3/4 versus 4/5. Each of these fractions needs 1 to complete the whole. You need to subtract the numerator with one to compare them. For 3/4 we have 1/4 and for 4/5 we have 1/5. You know that if you complete 4/5 you will get 4. You know that 5 is greater than four. Therefore, 4/5 is larger than 3/4.

Answer: 37 kilograms of walnuts should be mixed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of kilograms of peanuts needed to make the mixture.
Let y represent the number of kilograms of walnut needed to make the mixture.
The mixture to be made is 100 kg. It means that
x + y = 100
The worth of the mixture is $3.24 per kilogram. It means that the total worth of the mixture is
3.24 × 100 = $324
peanuts cost $2.50 per kilogram and walnuts cost $4.50 per kilogram. It means that
2.5x + 4.5y = 324- - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 100 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2.5(100 - y) + 4.5y = 324
250 - 2.5y + 4.5y = 324
- 2.5y + 4.5y = 324 - 250
2y = 74
y = 74/2 = 37
x = 100 - y = 100 - 37
x = 63
