Hilda baked 200 wafers. She gave 30 wafers to Tom and some wafers to Ethan. She had
34 of the total wafers left.
- How many wafers did she have left?
- What fraction of the total wafers did she give to Ethan?
(a)
Total number of wafers = 4 u
4 u = 200
1 u = 200 ÷ 4 = 50
Number of wafers that Hilda had left
= 3 u
= 3 x 50
= 150
(b)
Number of wafers that Tina gave to Ethan
= 200 - 150 - 30
= 20
Fraction of the total wafers that Hilda gave to Ethan
=
