For every 30 tarts that Adam bakes,
he bakes 20 puffs.
He bakes a total of 150 tarts and puffs.
- How many puffs does he bake?
- How many more tarts than puffs does he bake?
(a)
Number of tarts and puffs per set
= 30 + 20
= 50
Number of sets
= 150 ÷ 50
= 3
Number of puffs that Adam bakes
= 3 x 20
= 60
(b) Number of tarts that Adam bakes
= 3 x 30
= 90
Number of more tarts than puffs
= 90 - 60
= 30
Answer(s): (a) 60; (b) 30
