Question

Mrs Smith packed 7,866 grams of mixed nuts into 25 big and small packets. There were 13 big packets of 462 grams of mixed nuts. What was the mass of each small packet of mixed nuts?​

Answer 1

25 - 13 = 12 small packets

462 x 13 = 6006 grams in big packets

7866 - 6006 = 1860 grams in small packets

1860/12 = 155 grams in each small packet
