For every 800 buns that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 500 cupcakes and 200 muffins.
It produces 4000 buns.
- How many cupcakes does Adam's factory bake?
- How many more buns than muffins does Adam's factory produce?
- How many cupcakes, buns and muffins does Adam's factory produce in total?
(a)
Number of sets of 800 buns
= 4000 ÷ 800
= 5
Number of cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 500
= 2500
(b)
Number of more buns than muffins per set
= 800 - 200
= 600
Number of less cupcakes than buns that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 600
= 3000
(c)
Number of buns, cupcakes and muffins per set
= 800 + 500 + 200
= 1500
Number of buns, cupcakes and muffins that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 1500
= 7500
Answer(s): (a) 2500; (b) 3000; (c) 7500
