Can someone help with this pls.
A helpful person answered the total as 200 each but it may not be logical when the dark chocolate is 220more than white.
Tks.

Change 68% to 65%. The question should make sense now.

There you go. The person who gave 200 as the answer made the mistake of dividing 400 by 2. For Percentage questions, we must be VERY CLEAR what we are focusing on as the "100%"

Thanks with clear schematic diagram.
Can i take a step further for checking.
The calculated percent for dark c is 59% instead.
Sliver box:
400-76/2=162
Dark c is 162.
Gold box:
400-220/2=90
Dark c is 90+220=310
The diff is 148
And percent dark c for both boxes is 59%.
Is there error is the qns?
Thanks.
