Cindy baked 70 scones. She ate
25 of them.
- How many scones had she eaten?
- How many scones had she left?
(a)
Total number of scones baked = 5 u
5 u = 70
1 u = 70 ÷ 5 = 14
Number of scones that Cindy ate
= 2 u
= 2 x 14
= 28
(b)
Number of scones that Cindy had left
= 70 - 28
= 42
Answer(s) : (a) 28; (b) 42
