Usha baked 240 wafers. She gave 60 wafers to Henry and some wafers to Cody. She had
35 of the total wafers left.
- How many wafers did she have left?
- What fraction of the total wafers did she give to Cody?
(a)
Total number of wafers = 5 u
5 u = 240
1 u = 240 ÷ 5 = 48
Number of wafers that Usha had left
= 3 u
= 3 x 48
= 144
(b)
Number of wafers that Tina gave to Cody
= 240 - 144 - 60
= 36
Fraction of the total wafers that Usha gave to Cody
=
