The number of green chocolate bars is repeated. Make the number of green chocolate bars the same.
5 x 6 = 30%
Total number of white chocolate bars and brown chocolate bars in percent
= 100% - 30%
= 70%
Number of brown chocolate bars in percent
= 70% - 24%
= 46%
Number of more brown chocolate bars than green chocolate bars in percent
= 46% - 24%
= 16%
16% = 128
1% = 128 ÷ 16 = 8
Number of more brown chocolate bars than white chocolate bars
= 46% - 24%
= 22%
= 22 x 8
= 176
Answer(s): 176
