Answer 1

To find out how many days it will take Nigel to sell 36 candy bars at a rate of 4 bars every 3 days, we can set up a proportion.

1. First, find out how many candy bars he sells per day:
\[
\text{Bars per day} = \frac{4 \text{ bars}}{3 \text{ days}} \approx 1.33 \text{ bars per day}
\]

2. Next, to find out how many days it takes him to sell 36 bars, use the formula:
\[
\text{Days} = \frac{\text{Total bars}}{\text{Bars per day}}
\]
Substituting in the values:
\[
\text{Days} = \frac{36 \text{ bars}}{\frac{4}{3} \text{ bars per day}} = 36 \times \frac{3}{4} = 27 \text{ days}
\]

So, it will take Nigel **27 days** to sell all 36 candy bars.
