For every 500 cupcakes that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 300 buns and 200 muffins.
It produces 4000 cupcakes.
- How many muffins does Adam's factory bake?
- How many less buns than cupcakes does Adam's factory produce?
- How many buns, cupcakes and muffins does Adam's factory produce in total?
(a)
Number of sets of 500 cupcakes
= 4000 ÷ 500
= 8
Number of muffins that Adam's factory produces
= 8 x 200
= 1600
(b)
Number of less buns than cupcakes per set
= 500 - 300
= 200
Number of less buns than cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 8 x 200
= 1600
(c)
Number of cupcakes, buns and muffins per set
= 500 + 300 + 200
= 1000
Number of cupcakes, buns and muffins that Adam's factory produces
= 8 x 1000
= 8000
Answer(s): (a) 1600; (b) 1600; (c) 8000
