Mr Lee has a family of 6 people and Mrs Scarlett has a family of 4. They were given 15 kg of chocolate when they visited a chocolate factory for work. If they decide to share it so that each family
member gets an equal amount, determine the required ratio and hence calculate how much
chocolate Mr Lee and Mrs Scarlett will each take home to their families.

Mr Lee gets 9kg

Mrs Scarlett gets 6kg

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have 15kg of chocolate and a total of 6 + 4 = 10 people.

We want to divide the 15kg of chocolate evenly between these 10 people, then we just need to do the quotient

15kg/10 = 1.5kg

This means that each person gets 1.5 kg of chocolate.

Now, Mr. Lee has a family of 6 people, and each one of these 6 people got 1.5 kg of chocolate, then the total amount of chocolate that Mr. Lee will bring home is 6 times 1.5kg:

6*1.5kg = 9kg

And Mrs Scarlett will get the remaining, that is:

15kg - 9kg = 6kg

Mrs Scarlett will get 6kg of chocolate.
