For every 80 croissants that Adam bakes,
he bakes 10 biscuits.
He bakes a total of 180 croissants and biscuits.
- How many biscuits does he bake?
- How many more croissants than biscuits does he bake?
(a)
Number of croissants and biscuits per set
= 80 + 10
= 90
Number of sets
= 180 ÷ 90
= 2
Number of biscuits that Adam bakes
= 2 x 10
= 20
(b) Number of croissants that Adam bakes
= 2 x 80
= 160
Number of more croissants than biscuits
= 160 - 20
= 140
Answer(s): (a) 20; (b) 140
