nigel is selling candy bars for his outdor club. i he is averging 4 bars every 3 day. if he continues at the rate, how long willl it take him to sell his box of 36? your answer should be a whwole number

Answer 1

To find out how long it will take Nigel to sell his box of 36 candy bars, we need to determine how many groups of 4 bars he can sell from the box.

Since he sells an average of 4 bars every 3 days, we can set up a ratio:

4 bars / 3 days = 36 bars / x days

Cross-multiplying, we get:

4x = 36 * 3

Simplifying:

4x = 108

Dividing by 4 on both sides:

x = 108 / 4

x = 27

Therefore, it will take Nigel 27 days to sell his box of 36 candy bars.
