Kylie baked 240 puffs. She gave 30 puffs to Andy and some puffs to Caden. She had
34 of the total puffs left.
- How many puffs did she have left?
- What fraction of the total puffs did she give to Caden?

Total number of puffs = 4 u
4 u = 240
1 u = 240 ÷ 4 = 60
Number of puffs that Kylie had left
= 3 u

(b)
Number of puffs that Tina gave to Caden
= 240 - 180 - 30
= 30
Fraction of the total puffs that Kylie gave to Caden
