The number of red chocolate bars is repeated. Make the number of red chocolate bars the same.
5 x 4 = 20%
Total number of grey chocolate bars and pink chocolate bars in percent
= 100% - 20%
= 80%
Number of pink chocolate bars in percent
= 80% - 16%
= 64%
Number of more pink chocolate bars than red chocolate bars in percent
= 64% - 16%
= 44%
44% = 352
1% = 352 ÷ 44 = 8
Number of more pink chocolate bars than grey chocolate bars
= 64% - 16%
= 48%
= 48 x 8
= 384
Answer(s): 384
