A chocolate shop sold 1 1/4 ounces of white chocolate. It sold 8 1/4 times as much milk chocolate as white chocolate. How many ounces of milk chocolate did the shop sell?

10.3125 (NOT  ROUNDED)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. I changed it to decimals. 1/4 can easily be changed into a decimal.

2. I set 1/4 = x/100. Then cross multiplied. That would give you 4x = 100.

3. Now you would simplify that. x would be 25. So its 25/100 wich then turns to .25.

4. Now you are going to replace them so it would be 1.25 and 8.25.

5. To find out how much milk chocolate there was you would multiply 1.25 and 8.25.

6. That's your final answer

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
