FannyNumber of apricot puffs = 1 u
Number of blueberry puffs = 1 u + 20
Roshel Number of blueberry puffs = 1 p
Number of apricot puffs = 1 p + 200
Number of apricot puffs in percent
= 100% - 32%
= 68%
1 u + 20 + 1 p = 32% --- (1)
1 u + 1 p + 200 = 68% --- (2)
(2) - (1)
68% - 32% = 200 - 20
36% = 180
1% = 180 ÷ 36 = 5
Number of blueberry puffs that they made altogether
= 32%
= 32 x 5
= 160
Answer(s): 160
