9/25

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, 0.36 has two numbers after the decimal, so, we place 100 in the denominator and remove the decimal point.

⇒ 36/100

After reducing this fraction we get

⇒ (36 ÷ 4) / (100 ÷ 4) = 9/25

a) 0.25x times 3. (could be wrong on equation.)

b) 2.25 pound of dark chocolate. (can i eat all the chocolate? plz? anyway, again, could be wrong, but i hope im right. all the chocolate together should be 5.25 pounds)

have a good day!
