For every 500 cupcakes that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 400 muffins and 300 buns.
It produces 3000 cupcakes.
- How many buns does Adam's factory bake?
- How many less muffins than cupcakes does Adam's factory produce?
- How many muffins, cupcakes and buns does Adam's factory produce in total?
(a)
Number of sets of 500 cupcakes
= 3000 ÷ 500
= 6
Number of buns that Adam's factory produces
= 6 x 300
= 1800
(b)
Number of less muffins than cupcakes per set
= 500 - 400
= 100
Number of less muffins than cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 6 x 100
= 600
(c)
Number of cupcakes, muffins and buns per set
= 500 + 400 + 300
= 1200
Number of cupcakes, muffins and buns that Adam's factory produces
= 6 x 1200
= 7200
Answer(s): (a) 1800; (b) 600; (c) 7200
