Answer 1

Answer: The milk chocolate makes up 20%.

Explanation: 0.5=50%+30%=80% 100%-80%=20%

Answer 2

`(1)/(5)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Dark chocolate, milk chocolate and white chocolate are 100% of what chocolate The Forever Chocolate Company makes.

The equivalent of 100% as a fraction is
`(1)/(1)`.

White chocolate

if 0.5 is white chocolate, this means 0.5 of 1

that is,
`(0.5)/(1)` =0.5 0r
`(1)/(2)`

Therefore, half of the chocolate they make is white chocolate.

White chocolate represents 50%

They make 30% dark chocolate

Milk chocolate

Milk chocolate makes up the remaining,

100% - 80% = 20%

Milk chocolate represents 20%

Converting 20% to fraction:

`(20)/(100)`=
`(1)/(5)` or 0.2
