    For every 5 cashews, there are 6 peanuts and 7 almonds.

    Means: Cashews:Peanuts:Almonds = 5:6:7

    Sum of ratio = 5 + 6 + 7 = 18

    Cashews = (5/18) * 270 = 75

    Peanuts = (6/18) * 270 = 90

    Almonds = (7/18) * 270 = 105

    So how many more what are there than peanuts?

    The number of that nuts Minus the number of peanuts.

    = Number of that nuts - 90
