and 32 packets of 5 liquorice sticks.
a. Find the total number of sweets that Ricky and Micky find that night.
b. Find the difference between the number of choc buds and the number of smarties.

Answers

  1. Answer:
    a) 3034
    b)249
    Step-by-step explanation:
    jellyb beans: 7*135= 945
    choc buds: 9*121=1089
    smarties: 12*70=840
    liquorice sticks: 32*5=160
    a) the total number of sweets: 945 + 1089 + 840 + 160 = 3034
    b) the difference between the number of choc buds and the number of smarties: 1089 – 840 = 249
