For every 20 macarons that Adam bakes,
he bakes 10 wafers.
He bakes a total of 180 macarons and wafers.
- How many wafers does he bake?
- How many more macarons than wafers does he bake?
(a)
Number of macarons and wafers per set
= 20 + 10
= 30
Number of sets
= 180 ÷ 30
= 6
Number of wafers that Adam bakes
= 6 x 10
= 60
(b) Number of macarons that Adam bakes
= 6 x 20
= 120
Number of more macarons than wafers
= 120 - 60
= 60
Answer(s): (a) 60; (b) 60
