For every 80 muffins that Adam bakes,
he bakes 50 croissants.
He bakes a total of 130 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
= 80 + 50
= 130
Number of sets
= 130 ÷ 130
= 1
Number of croissants that Adam bakes
= 1 x 50
= 50
(b) Number of muffins that Adam bakes
= 1 x 80
= 80
Number of more muffins than croissants
= 80 - 50
= 30
Answer(s): (a) 50; (b) 30
