Alex sold 330 candy bars to raise money for his community basketball league. Milk chocolate candy bars sold for $2 each, and white chocolate candy bars sold for $3 each. Alex sold $900 worth of candy bars.

How many white chocolate candy bars did Alex sell?

Respuesta :

3:2                                  3+2=5                       900/5= 180

                                        3x180= 540         2x180= 260            540+260=900
270:60     

answer 270
Let the number of white chocolate candy bars be x, then the number of milk chocolate candy bars is 330 - x
2(330 - x) + 3x = 900
660 - 2x + 3x = 900
x = 900 - 660 = 240

Therefore, he sold 240 white chocolate candy bars.
