Problem c) Calculate the total squares of chocolate: - Given: 1200 kg chocolate, 40 squares per kg. - Multiply kilograms by squares per kilogram: $$1200 \times 40 = 48000.$$ - So, there are 48000 squares of chocolate. 3. Problem on pizza sales: - Given: 320 pieces sold at R11 each. - Multiply pieces by price per piece: $$320 \times 11 = 3520.$$ - So, the total money made is 3520. 4. Problem on earnings for Super-Duper cleaning services: a) Earnings for an 8 hour day: - Hourly rate = 23. - Total for 8 hours: $$23 \times 8 = 184.$$ - The cleaner earns 184 in one day. b) Earnings for a five-day week: - Multiply daily earnings by 5: $$184 \times 5 = 920.$$ - The cleaner earns 920 in a week. c) Earnings for a 21-day month: - Multiply daily earnings by 21: $$184 \times 21 = 3864.$$ - The cleaner earns 3864 in a 21-day month. 5. Problem on oranges: - Given: 1299 kg chocolate (probably a typo, we consider it as 1299 bags), 33 oranges in each bag. - Multiply bags by oranges per bag: $$1299 \times 33 = 42867.$$ - So, there are 42867 oranges in total.
