Answer:
198
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the manufacturer of cans of salted mixed nuts state that the ratio of peanuts to other nuts is 4 to 3.
So, ratio of peanuts to other nuts in a can = 4 : 3
Total number of nuts in a can = 464 nuts (i)
We need to find number of other nuts in a can.
Let number of peanuts be 4 k where k is a natural number.
Let number of other nuts be 3 k where k is a natural number.
Total number of nuts = 4 k + 3 k = 7 k (ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get 7 k = 464 which implies [tex]k=\frac{464}{7}[/tex]
So, number of other nuts in a can = [tex]3k=3\times \frac{464}{7}=199[/tex] ( approx. )
