For every 90 biscuits that Adam bakes,
he bakes 10 cupcakes.
He bakes a total of 100 biscuits and cupcakes.
- How many cupcakes does he bake?
- How many more biscuits than cupcakes does he bake?
(a)
Number of biscuits and cupcakes per set
= 90 + 10
= 100
Number of sets
= 100 ÷ 100
= 1
Number of cupcakes that Adam bakes
= 1 x 10
= 10
(b) Number of biscuits that Adam bakes
= 1 x 90
= 90
Number of more biscuits than cupcakes
= 90 - 10
= 80
Answer(s): (a) 10; (b) 80
