Question

a delicious treat known as a S'more is constructed with the following ingrreients and ammoumnts:

1 graham cracker, 1 chocolate bar, 2 marshmallows

at a particular store, these items can be obrained only in full boxes, each of which contains one gross of items. a gross is a specific number of items, analogous to one dozen but much larger than twelve. the boxes of items have the following net weights ( the weight of the material inside the box):

box of graham crackers 9.0 pounds, box of chocolate bars 36.0 pounds, box of marshmallows 3.0 poumds

1. if you have a collection of 100 graham crackers, how many chocolate bars and how many marshmallows do you need to make Smores with all of the graham crackers?

2. if you have a collection of 1000 graham crackers,800 chocolate bars, and 1000 marshmalows:

a. how many Smores can you make?

b. what (if anything) will be left over, and how many of that item will there be?

Answer 1

for 1 Smore we required 1 graham crackers + 1 chocolate bar + 2 marshmallows

1. 100 grahm of crackers

to make Smores from 100 graham cracker we required 100 chocolate bar and 200 marshmallows.

2. 1000 graham crackers, 800 chocolate bars and 1000 marshmalows

for 1 Smore we required 1 g crackers + 1 chocolate bar + 2 marshmallows

as we are having 1000 marshmallows and in making we require 2 marshmallows for each crackers and chocolate bar so for these we can make 500 Smores,

500 graham crackers and 300 chocolate bar are remaining
