Gabby baked 56 scones. She ate
34 of them.
- How many scones had she eaten?
- How many scones had she left?
(a)
Total number of scones baked = 4 u
4 u = 56
1 u = 56 ÷ 4 = 14
Number of scones that Gabby ate
= 3 u
= 3 x 14
= 42
(b)
Number of scones that Gabby had left
= 56 - 42
= 14
Answer(s) : (a) 42; (b) 14
