After restocking the vending machine, Sonya determined that 2 packs of mints were sold for every 6 packs of gum. If a total of 160 packs of candy were sold, how many were packs of gum?

Answer:

(By mints I hoped you meant candy) 480 packs of gum

Explanation:

2 packs of candy for every 6 packs of gum. Divided beach side by two to get ration of 1:3. This means that for every 1 pack of candy 3 packs of gum are sold. 160 x 3 = 480.
