4) A granola bar has a mass of 42.9 g and the granola bar contains 26.20% honey

by mass. If one box contains 6 granola bars, how many boxes could be produced
using 189.5 kg of honey at the factory?

Answer 1

The percentage of honey in one granola bar is 26.02 percent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of 1 granola bar is 42.9 grams. The grams of honey that is present in one granola bar is equal to 26.02 percent of 42.9 = 11.16 g

Now the amount of honey in the factory is given as 189.5g the weight of total granola bars would be

`= 42.9/11.16 x 189.5= 728.25`

So no. of granula bars
`=728.25/42.9 =16.9` that can be Approximated to nearly 17

Now if one box has 6 bars then 17 bars will have to fit inside three boxes
