For every 500 cupcakes that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 400 buns and 300 muffins.
It produces 2000 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
= 2000 ÷ 500
= 4
Number of muffins that Adam's factory produces
= 4 x 300
= 1200
(b)
Number of less buns than cupcakes per set
= 500 - 400
= 100
Number of less buns than cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 4 x 100
= 400
(c)
Number of cupcakes, buns and muffins per set
= 500 + 400 + 300
= 1200
Number of cupcakes, buns and muffins that Adam's factory produces
= 4 x 1200
= 4800
Answer(s): (a) 1200; (b) 400; (c) 4800
