For every 900 buns that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 700 muffins and 200 cupcakes.
It produces a total of 4800 buns and muffins,
- How many cupcakes does Adam's factory bake?
- How many more buns than cupcakes does Adam's factory produce?
- How many muffins and cupcakes does Adam's factory produce in total?
(a)
Number of buns and muffins per set
= 900 + 700
= 1600
Number of sets
= 4800 ÷ 1600
= 3
Number of cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 3 x 200
= 600
(b)
Number of more buns than cupcakes per set
= 900 - 200
= 700
Number of more buns than cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 3 x 700
= 2100
(c)
Number of muffins and cupcakes per set
= 700 + 200
= 900
Number of muffins and cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 3 x 900
= 2700
Answer(s): (a) 600; (b) 2100; (c) 2700
