After giving away 200g of sweets, Andy had (2/3) of the sweets left. He then packed the remaining sweets equally into bags of (1/10) kg each.
How many bags of sweets did Andy have?
Answered by Reiny
Wow, you had to wait all of 15 minutes !!!

so (1/3)x = 200
x = 600 , she had 600 grams
and has 400 g left which she bags in 100 g.
So how many bags must she use ????

How do you calculate how many bags there are, when all the question is giving you are grams of the lollies, and grams of the bag?
