There are 85 mini chocolates in a bowl. The ration of kit kats to hersheys bars is 8:7. About how many kit kats were there?

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Total mini chocolates in a bowl= 85

ration of kit kats to hersheys bars = 8:7

ration of kit = 8

Total ratio= 15

Number of kit kats= ratio of kit Kat/ total ratio × total number of mini chocolates

Number of kit Kat = 8/15 × 85= 45

Hence, there are 45 kit kats present there.

There were about 45 kit kats.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the information provided, you know that the the ratio of kit kats to hersheys bars is 8:7 and that there are 85 mini chocolates in a bowl, so to be  able to find the number of kit kats there first you can say that you have 15 units because if you add the numbers on the ratio 8+7=15. Then, you divide the total amount of mini chocolates by the units to find the number of chocolates in each unit:

85/15=5.66

Now, you can multiply the ratio of hersheys bars which is 7 for the number of chocolates per unit to find the amount of hersheys bars:

7*5.66=40

Finally, you can multiply the ratio of kit kats which is 8 for the number of chocolates per unit to find the amount of kit kats:

8*5.66=45

According to this, the answer is that there were about 45 kit kats.

won't that be plagrisim thought?
