For every 70 muffins that Adam bakes,
he bakes 20 croissants.
He bakes a total of 90 muffins and croissants.
- How many croissants does he bake?
- How many more muffins than croissants does he bake?
(a)
Number of muffins and croissants per set
= 70 + 20
= 90
Number of sets
= 90 ÷ 90
= 1
Number of croissants that Adam bakes
= 1 x 20
= 20
(b) Number of muffins that Adam bakes
= 1 x 70
= 70
Number of more muffins than croissants
= 70 - 20
= 50
Answer(s): (a) 20; (b) 50
