Q:
A candy factory made
3,000 lollipops on Monday,
4,500 gummy bears on Tuesday, 2,500 pieces of rock candy on Wednesday,
10,000 M&M's on Thursday,
and 3,200 jelly beans on Friday.
What is the ratio of the candy made on Tuesday to the total candy made that week? Simplify.
_________________________________
A:
The total candy made is
3,000 + 4,500 + 2,500 + 10,000 + 3,200 = 23,200.
The candy made on Tuesday is 4,500.
The ratio is 4,500 : 23,200.
The GCF of these two numbers is 100, so the simplified ratio would be 4500/100 : 23,200/100
= 45 : 232.
The final answer is 45:232.
