For every 90 shortbreads that Adam bakes,
he bakes 10 puffs.
He bakes a total of 200 shortbreads and puffs.
- How many puffs does he bake?
- How many more shortbreads than puffs does he bake?
(a)
Number of shortbreads and puffs per set
= 90 + 10
= 100
Number of sets
= 200 ÷ 100
= 2
Number of puffs that Adam bakes
= 2 x 10
= 20
(b) Number of shortbreads that Adam bakes
= 2 x 90
= 180
Number of more shortbreads than puffs
= 180 - 20
= 160
Answer(s): (a) 20; (b) 160
