the melt in your mouth chocolate factory sells three times as many mints as it sells almond bars.it sells half as many almond bars as it sells caramels.if it sells 3,750 cases of mints each month,how many caramels does it sell in one month
Use the method of divding and multiplaction.
take 3,750 and divide that by 3
then take your answer from that and multiply that by 2 and you will get your answer!!
The melt in your mouth chocolate factory is a rectangular building. The distance across the front of the store is 294 feet. The distance from the front to back is one-third of this distance. If the owners paint a sign all the way around the outside of the factory, how many feet long will the sign be?
If you have not done algebra, you can use the method of false position (like the ancient Egyptians did)
If they sold 1 almond bar, then they sold 3*1=3 mints, and 2*1=2 caramels for a total of 1+3+2=6 bars.
If they sold a total of 3750 bars, then almonds = 3750/6=625
Mint = 3*625=1875
Caramel =2*625=1250
Using algebra:
A=almond bars
C=2*A
M=3*A
Solve for A:
A+C+M=6A=3750
A=3750/6=625
M=3*625=1875
C=2*625=1250

To find out how many caramels the Melt in Your Mouth Chocolate Factory sells in one month, we need to follow the information given in the question step-by-step.
Let's assign variables to the number of almond bars and caramels sold per month.
Let:
- A = Number of almond bars sold per month
- C = Number of caramels sold per month
From the given information, we know that:
- Mints sold = 3 times Almond bars sold
- Almond bars sold = Half the number of Caramels
We are given that the factory sells 3,750 cases of mints each month. Since the question doesn't mention how many mints are in each case, we can't directly determine the number of mints.
However, since 1 case of mints is sold, we can say:
Mints sold = Number of cases of mints sold
Now, let's substitute the given information into equations:
Mints sold = 3 times Almond bars sold
=> M = 3A (Equation 1)
Almond bars sold = Half the number of Caramels
=> A = 0.5C (Equation 2)
We know that Mints sold = 3,750
=> M = 3,750
By substituting the value of M in Equation 1:
3,750 = 3A
Now, solve for A:
A = 3,750 / 3
A = 1,250
Now, substitute the value of A in Equation 2:
1,250 = 0.5C
Solve for C:
C = 1,250 / 0.5
C = 2,500
Therefore, the Melt in Your Mouth Chocolate Factory sells 2,500 caramels in one month.
