For every 500 cupcakes that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 400 muffins and 300 buns.
It produces a total of 1800 cupcakes and muffins,
- How many buns does Adam's factory bake?
- How many more cupcakes than buns does Adam's factory produce?
- How many muffins and buns does Adam's factory produce in total?
(a)
Number of cupcakes and muffins per set
= 500 + 400
= 900
Number of sets
= 1800 ÷ 900
= 2
Number of buns that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 300
= 600
(b)
Number of more cupcakes than buns per set
= 500 - 300
= 200
Number of more cupcakes than buns that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 200
= 400
(c)
Number of muffins and buns per set
= 400 + 300
= 700
Number of muffins and buns that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 700
= 1400
Answer(s): (a) 600; (b) 400; (c) 1400
