Xylia baked 70 scones. She ate
57 of them.
- How many scones had she eaten?
- How many scones had she left?
(a)
Total number of scones baked = 7 u
7 u = 70
1 u = 70 ÷ 7 = 10
Number of scones that Xylia ate
= 5 u
= 5 x 10
= 50
(b)
Number of scones that Xylia had left
= 70 - 50
= 20
Answer(s) : (a) 50; (b) 20
