Jean made some croissants. She sold ²₃ of them in the morning and ⁴₉ of the remainder in the afternoon. If she sold 28 more croissants in the morning than in the afternoon, how many croissants did she make altogether?

Morning	Remainder		Total
2x9	1x9		3x9
	Afternoon	Left
	4	5
18 u	4 u	5 u	27 u

Fraction of croissants left after selling some in the morning
= 1 - ²₃ 
= ¹₃

Fraction of croissants sold in the afternoon
= ⁴₉ x ¹₃
= ⁴₂₇

Make the denominators the same.
 ²₃ = ¹⁸₂₇ 

Number of croissants that Jean sold in the morning = 18 u
Number of croissants that Jean sold in the afternoon = 4 u

Number of more croissants that Jean sold in the morning than in the afternoon
= 18 u - 4 u
= 14 u

14 u = 28

1 u = 28 ÷ 14 = 2

Total number of croissants that Jean made
= 27 u
= 27 x 2
= 54

Answer(s): 54
