For every 800 cupcakes that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 600 muffins and 400 buns.
It produces 4000 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 800 cupcakes
= 4000 ÷ 800
= 5
Number of buns that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 400
= 2000
(b)
Number of less muffins than cupcakes per set
= 800 - 600
= 200
Number of less muffins than cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 200
= 1000
(c)
Number of cupcakes, muffins and buns per set
= 800 + 600 + 400
= 1800
Number of cupcakes, muffins and buns that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 1800
= 9000
Answer(s): (a) 2000; (b) 1000; (c) 9000
