A bakery made some egg, curry and chocolate puffs. For every 2 egg puffs that were made, 1 chocolate puff were made. For every 8 egg puffs that were made, 7 curry puffs were made.
- Find the ratio of the number of egg puffs to curry puffs to chocolate puffs made.
- After the bakery made another 95 chocolate puffs, 25% of the puffs now were chocolate puffs. How many egg puffs did the bakery make?
(a)
Egg |
Curry |
Chocolate |
2x4 |
|
1x4 |
8x1 |
7x1 |
|
8 u |
7 u |
4 u |
Egg : Curry : Chocolate
8 : 7 : 4
(b)
|
Egg |
Curry |
Chocolate |
Before |
15 u |
4 u |

No change |
+ 95 |
After |
3x5 = 15 u |
1x5 = 5 u |
Total number of egg and curry puffs
= 7 u + 8 u
= 15 u
Increase in the number of chocolate puffs
= 5 u - 4 u
= 1 u
1 u = 95
Number of egg puffs
= 8 u
= 8 x 95
= 760
Answer(s): (a) 8 : 7 : 4 ; (b) 760
