Jack had a box Good and plenty candy. The ratio of pink to white candy's was 5:7 If Jack buys a bigger bag of candy with the same pink to white ratio and a total of 120 candies, how many candy's are white?

Respuesta :

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Ratio of pink to white is 5:7} \\ \text{Total Ratio=5+7=12} \\ \text{Total candies=120} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus, the number of white candies are:

Hence, there are 70 white candies in the bigger bag
