For every 130 buns that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 20 cupcakes.
It produces a total of 300 buns and cupcakes,
- How many buns does Adam's factory bake?
- How many more buns than cupcakes does Adam's factory produce?
(a)
Number of buns and cupcakes per set
= 130 + 20
= 150
Number of sets
= 300 ÷ 150
= 2
Number of buns that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 130
= 260
(b)
Number of cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 20
= 40
Number of more buns than cupcakes
= 260 - 40
= 220
Answer(s): (a) 260; (b) 220
