For every 240 buns that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 170 muffins.
It produces a total of 820 buns and muffins,
- How many buns does Adam's factory bake?
- How many more buns than muffins does Adam's factory produce?
(a)
Number of buns and muffins per set
= 240 + 170
= 410
Number of sets
= 820 ÷ 410
= 2
Number of buns that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 240
= 480
(b)
Number of muffins that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 170
= 340
Number of more buns than muffins
= 480 - 340
= 140
Answer(s): (a) 480; (b) 140
