A box of chocolates contains 18 chocolate squares. 10 of the squares are milk chocolate. 5 are dark chocolate and 3 are white ch
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Either %16.67 or %17 if rounded

Step-by-step explanation:.

An easy way to do this is convert the probability from a fraction into a percent. We can do this by taking the total number of chocolate squares (18) and using this as a denominator. Then take the number of white chocolate squares (3) and using this as our numerator. This give us a fraction of 3/18. Now to turn this into a percent, we need to find what you need to multiply 18 by to get 100. We can do this easily by deviding 100 by 18. This is a long decimal so i'll keep it in fraction form (100/18). Now you just have to multiply 3 by (100/18). This is about 16.67. If the answers are rounded it will be 17%.
