In a biscuit mixture 3 of 8 is sugar so 120 grams of sugar in the mixture how much mixture is there without the sugar?

Answer 1

3 of 8 mixture = 120 g

1 of 8 mixture = 120/3 = 40

total mixture = 40 x 8 = 320 g

mixture without the sugar = 320g - 120g = 200 g.

Answer 2

If 3 out of 8 parts of the mixture is sugar, then 5 out of 8 parts are the other components. To find out how much mixture is there without the sugar, we need to calculate 5/8 of the total mixture weight. Given that 120 grams of sugar is 3 parts, so each part is 40 grams (120 grams / 3). Therefore, the total mixture without sugar is 200 grams (40 grams * 5).
