Hazel made 194 more vanilla croissants than apricot croissants. The total number of apricot croissants made up 38% of the total number of croissants they made. How many vanilla croissants did they make altogether?

Number of vanilla croissants		Number of apricot croissants
62%		38%
Tiffany	Hazel	Tiffany	Hazel
1 u	1 p + 194	1 u + 146	1 p

Tiffany
Number of vanilla croissants = 1 u
Number of apricot croissants = 1 u + 146

Hazel
Number of apricot croissants = 1 p
Number of vanilla croissants = 1 p + 194

Number of vanilla croissants in percent
= 100% - 38%
= 62%

1 u + 146 + 1 p = 38% --- (1)
1 u + 1 p + 194 = 62% --- (2)

(2) - (1)
62% - 38% = 194 - 146
24% = 48

1% = 48 ÷ 24 = 2

Number of vanilla croissants that they made altogether
= 62%
= 62 x 2
= 124

Answer(s): 124
