Gourmet candies: Percents & Fractions, Problem Solving (Misc.), Proportional Reasoning
Sugar Shack gourmet candy shop’s signature candy mixture contains Sour Drops, Chocolate Chews and Tangy Twists in the ratio 2:3:4, respectively. How many more pounds of Tangy Twists than Sour Drops are in a 45-pound batch of this signature candy mixture?
Nyelle purchases some Sour Drops, Chocolate Chews and Tangy Twists to combine into her personal batch of the Sugar Shack’s signature candy mixture using the same proportions as the previous problem. If the prices per pound for the candies are $6.00 for Sour Drops, $3.50 for Chocolate Chews and $4.25 for Tangy Twists, what is the total cost (not including tax) to purchase the exact amounts of all three candies required to make 4.5 pounds of this signature candy mixture?
Rae purchases 4.5 pounds of the signature candy mixture when it goes on sale at the Sugar Shack for $4.00 per pound. What is the absolute difference between Nyelle’s and Rae’s total costs (not including tax) to get 4.5 pounds of the signature candy mixture?
