1. To determine the Difference, SUBTRACT the CHEWED weight from the TOTAL
weight. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. To determine the Ratio, DIVIDE the DIFFERENCE from the TOTAL weight. |
|
This answer should be less than 1. The answer should be in a decimal
form. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. To determine the % of Sugar, MULTIPLY the RATIO by 100. |
|
|
|
4. All answers should be to 3 digits. |

5. Did the Sugarless gum actually have sugar in it? If so, how can they
