Jordan and Liza share 240g of sweets in the ratio 7:3. Calculate the amount Jordan receives.

168g

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to split 240g of sweets in the ratio 7:3 where Jordan gets '7' and Liza gets '3'. So the first step in solving ratio problems like this is to add the ratio together because then it gives the total. Then the second step is to divide the 240g by the added ratio which gives how much 1 part is. Finally after we have worked 1 part we multiply it by 7 to calculate the amount Jordan receives so,

→ First step in solving this is to add the ratios

7 + 3 = 10

→ Then the second step is to divide the 240g by the added ratio which gives how much 1 part is.

240 ÷ 10 = 24

→ Finally after we have worked 1 part we multiply it by 7 to calculate the amount Jordan receives

24 × 7 = 168

So Jordan receives 168 grams of sweets

answer

a) the midrange of the data set shown is 85.5

step by step explanation

let's find the midrange.

the midrange is nothing but add the greatest value and the least value, then divide it by 2.

here the greatest value = 99

the least value = 72

midrange = (99 + 72)/2

= 171/2

midrange = 85.5
