Mr Lee has a family of 6 people and Mrs Scarlett has a family of 4. They were given 15 kg of chocolate when they visited a chocolate factory for work. If they decide to share it so that each family
member gets an equal amount, determine the required ratio and hence calculate how much
chocolate Mr Lee and Mrs Scarlett will each take home to their families.

Mr. Lee takes home 9 kg of chocolate.

Mrs. Scarlet takes home 6kg of chocolate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Lee has a family of 6 people, and Mrs. Scarlett has a family of 4 people.

Together, the total number of people is 6 + 4 = 10

If we divide evenly the chocolate between all 10, then each one gets the same amount.

Then we need to do the quotient:

15kg/10 = 1.5kg

This means that each person gets 1.5kg of chocolate.

And Mr. Lee has 6 on his family, then the amount of chocolate that Mr. Lee takes home is 6 times 1.5 kg

6*1.5kg = 9kg

Mr. Lee takes home 9 kg of chocolate.

Mrs. Scarlett has a family of 4 people, then she takes home 4 times 1.5kg of chocolate, this is:

4*1.5kg = 6kg

Mrs. Scarlet takes home 6kg of chocolate.

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.  

the answer is: the length is 5/6 yards.
