What is the total selling price for all the boxes of chocolate?

100 pounds of chocolate is packaged into boxes each containing 1 1/4 pounds of chocolate. Each box is then sold for $1.75. What is the total selling price for all the boxes of chocolate?

Total Amount of chocolate = 100 Pounds
Amount of chocolate in one box = 1 1/4 Pounds =  5/4 Pounds
Number of boxes = 100/(5/4) = 80 boxes
Cost of one box = $1.75

Total selling price = 80×1.75 = 140

The total selling price for all the boxes of chocolate is $140
