Abi baked 240 tarts. She gave 40 tarts to Fabian and some tarts to Andy. She had
310 of the total tarts left.
- How many tarts did she have left?
- What fraction of the total tarts did she give to Andy?
(a)
Total number of tarts = 10 u
10 u = 240
1 u = 240 ÷ 10 = 24
Number of tarts that Abi had left
= 3 u
= 3 x 24
= 72
(b)
Number of tarts that Tina gave to Andy
= 240 - 72 - 40
= 128
Fraction of the total tarts that Abi gave to Andy
