For every 600 cupcakes that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 400 muffins and 300 buns.
It produces a total of 5000 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
= 600 + 400
= 1000
Number of sets
= 5000 ÷ 1000
= 5
Number of buns that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 300
= 1500
(b)
Number of more cupcakes than buns per set
= 600 - 300
= 300
Number of more cupcakes than buns that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 300
= 1500
(c)
Number of muffins and buns per set
= 400 + 300
= 700
Number of muffins and buns that Adam's factory produces
= 5 x 700
= 3500
Answer(s): (a) 1500; (b) 1500; (c) 3500
