There's 360 degrees in total. So all pies together must sum up to 360...

You've got 85 degrees for the beans. Good! (Smile)

What are you trying to find in your next step?I think we should try to find the amount of sugar...

Since sugar is 80 degrees, the ratio of beans to sugar is 85 / 80.
We know there is 425 kg of beans, and we want to know the amount of sugar.
Their ratio has to be the same, so:

425 kg of bean / amount of sugar = 85 / 80.

What would the amount of sugar be? (Wondering)

hi...i confuse it..could you make more simple?

You almost got it.

But let's see... the pie of sugar (80°) is smaller than the pie of beans (85°).
You found 451.56 kg of sugar... but that is greater than the 425 kg of beans.
That can't be right! (Shake)

What should be changed to make it right? (Wondering)

how about

=80/85*425 Kg = 400 Kg, It's true?

 

[I like Serena]

how about

=80/85*425 Kg = 400 Kg, It's true?

Yep. It is. (Nod)

What about the rice and the corn?

The complete pie contains 360 degrees.
To find the total of all ingredients you can do:

Total = 360/85 x 425 kg = 1800 kg
