Situation 1: Two students, Theo and Lance, each have some chocolates. They know that
they have the same number of chocolates. Theo has four full bags of chocolates and five
loose chocolates. Lance has two full bags of chocolates and twenty-nine loose
chocolates.
Determine the number of chocolates in a bag. Determine the number of chocolates each
child has.

Respuesta :

They each have two chocolates so those numbers of chocolates are the same.

Not counting the tubs, Arthur has one bag of chocolates and 25 loose chocolates; Oliver has two bags and 7 loose. If they both have the same total number of chocolates, then the difference in the number of loose chocolates they have (25-7=18) must be the number of chocolates in a bag.

There is no information given, in the problem as you show it, that allows us to determine the number of chocolates in a tub.

Answers: chocolates in a bag: 18. chocolates in a tub: unknown.
