Answer:

Question 1 C. 25 1/3

Question 2 C. 19

Explanation:

brief :

1. 6 1/3 = 19/3

19/3 * 4 = 76/3

76/3 = 25 1/3

To solve this problem, we need to use the information provided and do some simple arithmetic.

Question 1:

The candy store sold 6 1/3 pounds of white chocolate. Since it sold 4 times as much milk chocolate as white chocolate, we can find the amount of milk chocolate sold by multiplying 6 1/3 by 4:

6 1/3 * 4 = 25 1/3

Therefore, the candy store sold 25 1/3 pounds of milk chocolate last week.

Answer: C. 25 1/3

Question 2:

To find the difference between the amount of milk chocolate and white chocolate sold, we can subtract the amount of white chocolate from the amount of milk chocolate:

25 1/3 - 6 1/3 = 19

Therefore, the candy store sold 19 more pounds of milk chocolate than white chocolate.

Answer: C. 19

Question 1:

The candy store sold 4 times as much milk chocolate as white chocolate. Since the store sold 6 1/3 pounds of white chocolate, it sold:

4 * 6 1/3 = 25 1/3 pounds of milk chocolate

Therefore, the answer is C) 25 1/3.

Question 2:

The candy store sold 6 1/3 pounds of white chocolate and 25 1/3 pounds of milk chocolate. To find out how many more pounds of milk chocolate were sold than white chocolate, we can subtract the weight of the white chocolate from the weight of the milk chocolate:

25 1/3 - 6 1/3 = 19

Therefore, the answer is C) 19.
