The number of brown chocolate bars is repeated. Make the number of brown chocolate bars the same.
4 x 3 = 12%
Total number of green chocolate bars and grey chocolate bars in percent
= 100% - 12%
= 88%
Number of grey chocolate bars in percent
= 88% - 9%
= 79%
Number of more grey chocolate bars than brown chocolate bars in percent
= 79% - 9%
= 67%
67% = 603
1% = 603 ÷ 67 = 9
Number of more grey chocolate bars than green chocolate bars
= 79% - 9%
= 70%
= 70 x 9
= 630
Answer(s): 630
