    A. 13%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    let's suppose there's 1000 bars of chocolate in general

    70 % dark = 700 dark choco bars

    30 % milk = 300 milk choco bars

    20 % have nuts = 200 bars have nuts

    80 % don't have nuts = 800 bars don't have nuts

    if 90 % of dark chocolate bars don't have nuts, that means 630 dark chocolate bars don't have nuts, but 70 have nuts

    200 bars in general have nuts, if only 70 dark chocolate bars have nuts,

    200 - 70 = 130

    130 = 13%
