Caroline, Krutika and Natasha share some sweets in the ratio 1:2:4. Caroline gets 14 sweets.

Answer:

98 sweets

Explanation:

Caroline got 14 sweets, ratio for her was 1.

Krutika had twice the bigger ratio than her, which means you have to multipy Carolines' sweets by 2. -> 14*2= 28

And do the same thing for Natasha which gives us the result of 56. 14*4= 56

And finally, you add all of those together and get 14+28+56=98.

Hope I helped! :)
