Answer:
From the sale of boxes of candy, the team made $63
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 3/4 of the sold items were chocolate bars. A fast trick to find 3/4ths, or 75%, of a number is to multiply it by 3 and divide by 4.
168 * 3 = 504
504 ÷ 4 = 126
Now, we do 168 - 126 to find the number of candy boxes.
168 - 126 = 42
So, the soccer team sold 42 boxes of candy. Since each box was $1.50, we just multiply
42 * 1.50 = 63
The soccer team made $63 dollars by selling candy boxes.
