Min baked 300 croissants. She gave 80 croissants to Charlie and some croissants to Tim. She had
310 of the total croissants left.
- How many croissants did she have left?
- What fraction of the total croissants did she give to Tim?
(a)
Total number of croissants = 10 u
10 u = 300
1 u = 300 ÷ 10 = 30
Number of croissants that Min had left
= 3 u
= 3 x 30
= 90
(b)
Number of croissants that Tina gave to Tim
= 300 - 90 - 80
= 130
Fraction of the total croissants that Min gave to Tim
=
