Answer 1

Answer:

20 milk chocolate are there coz of equailty by dark chocolate hope it help u

Answer 2

Answer:

35

Step By Step Explanation:

Probability of choosing a milk chocolate = Total Probability - Probability of choosing a dark chocolate  

=12/12 - 5/12  

=7/12  

Let the total number of chocolates be x  

Thus-  

5/12 of x = 25  

5x/12 = 25  

5x = 25 × 12  

x = 300/5  

x = 60  

Number of milk chocolates = Total number of chocolates - Number of dark chocolates  

=60 - 25  

=35
