Sonal bought a box of chocolates to distribute them on her birthday in school. The box weighed 600 grams at the time of purchase. She distributed 3/4th of the sweets.How much chocolate is in the box?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Three quarter (3/4) of chocolate weight = (600 - 240 ) = 360
One quarter chocolates = 360 / 3 = 120 grams
Total weight of chocolates = 360 + 120 = 480
Box weight = Total weight - weight of chocolates
Box weight = 600 - 480 = 120 grams
Thus the weight of empty box is 120 grams.
