ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!A bag of candy contains 24 swedish fish, 16 gobstoppers, 35 jolly ranchers, 10 gummy bears, and 15 pieces of bubble gum. What is % composition of each type of candy?
Answer: 24 Swedish fish - 24% 16 Gobstoppers - 16% 35 Jolly ranchers - 35% 10 Gummy bears - 10% 15 pieces of bubble gum - 15%
Explanation: The reason behind why each percent is the same as the amount of pieces is because each piece of candy would be 1% of that bag of candy so if you added it all together you would have 100 pieces of candy and that is 100% of the bag!
I hope this helped! Let me know if i got this right!!
