Answer:
a) $4.14
b) No
c) 28 Snickers, 40 Milky Ways, 63 Reese's
72 Snickers, 60 Milky Ways, 37 Reese's
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Since 1 Snickers is $0.01, 1 Milky Ways is $0.03, and 1 Reese's is $0.04:
30 Snickers: 30(0.01) = 0.3
40 Milky Ways: 40(0.03) = 1.2
66 Reese's: 66(0.04) = 2.64
The value is: 0.3 + 1.2 + 2.64 = 4.14
b)
The total value is: 1 + 3 + 4 = 8
A fair share must have the same value, 8/2 = 4. Since one half is 4.14 which is more than 4, it is not a fair share.
c)
First half:
28 Snickers: 28(0.01) = 0.28
40 Milky Ways: 40(0.03) = 1.2
63 Reese's: 63(0.04) = 2.52
Second half:
72 Snickers: 72(0.01) = 0.72
60 Milky Ways: 60(0.03) = 1.8
37 Reese's: 37(0.04) = 1.48
