For every 500 muffins that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 300 buns and 200 cupcakes.
It produces a total of 1600 muffins and buns,
- How many cupcakes does Adam's factory bake?
- How many more muffins than cupcakes does Adam's factory produce?
- How many buns and cupcakes does Adam's factory produce in total?
(a)
Number of muffins and buns per set
= 500 + 300
= 800
Number of sets
= 1600 ÷ 800
= 2
Number of cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 200
= 400
(b)
Number of more muffins than cupcakes per set
= 500 - 200
= 300
Number of more muffins than cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 300
= 600
(c)
Number of buns and cupcakes per set
= 300 + 200
= 500
Number of buns and cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 500
= 1000
Answer(s): (a) 400; (b) 600; (c) 1000
