For every 600 muffins that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 400 cupcakes and 200 buns.
It produces 3000 muffins.
- How many cupcakes does Adam's factory bake?
- How many more muffins than buns does Adam's factory produce?
- How many cupcakes, muffins and buns does Adam's factory produce in total?
(a)
Number of sets of 600 muffins
= 3000 ÷ 600
= 5
Number of cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 400
= 2000
(b)
Number of more muffins than buns per set
= 600 - 200
= 400
Number of less cupcakes than muffins that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 400
= 2000
(c)
Number of muffins, cupcakes and buns per set
= 600 + 400 + 200
= 1200
Number of muffins, cupcakes and buns that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 1200
= 6000
Answer(s): (a) 2000; (b) 2000; (c) 6000
