Meiting has 3 times as many sweets as gloria and twice as many sweets as diana. What is the ratio of the number of sweets gloria has to the total number of sweets?

1 answer

Let's say Gloria has x sweets.
Therefore, Meiting has 3x sweets.
And Diana has (1/2)x sweets.
The total number of sweets is x + 3x + (1/2)x = (7/2)x.
So, the ratio of the number of sweets Gloria has to the total number of sweets is x/((7/2)x), which simplifies to 2/7. Answer: \boxed{\frac{2}{7}}.
