For every 500 buns that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 400 muffins and 200 cupcakes.
It produces 1000 buns.
- How many cupcakes does Adam's factory bake?
- How many less muffins than buns does Adam's factory produce?
- How many muffins, buns and cupcakes does Adam's factory produce in total?
(a)
Number of sets of 500 buns
= 1000 ÷ 500
= 2
Number of cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 200
= 400
(b)
Number of less muffins than buns per set
= 500 - 400
= 100
Number of less muffins than buns that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 100
= 200
(c)
Number of buns, muffins and cupcakes per set
= 500 + 400 + 200
= 1100
Number of buns, muffins and cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 1100
= 2200
Answer(s): (a) 400; (b) 200; (c) 2200
