For every 800 muffins that Adam's factory produces,
it produces 400 buns and 300 cupcakes.
It produces a total of 2400 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
= 800 + 400
= 1200
Number of sets
= 2400 ÷ 1200
= 2
Number of cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 300
= 600
(b)
Number of more muffins than cupcakes per set
= 800 - 300
= 500
Number of more muffins than cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 500
= 1000
(c)
Number of buns and cupcakes per set
= 400 + 300
= 700
Number of buns and cupcakes that Adam's factory produces
= 2 x 700
= 1400
Answer(s): (a) 600; (b) 1000; (c) 1400
