Vanessa made some croissants. She sold ⁵₈ of them in the morning and ⁵₆ of the remainder in the afternoon. If she sold 60 more croissants in the morning than in the afternoon, how many croissants did she make altogether?

Morning	Remainder		Total
5x2	3x2		8x2
	Afternoon	Left
	5	1
10 u	5 u	1 u	16 u

Fraction of croissants left after selling some in the morning
= 1 - ⁵₈ 
= ³₈

Fraction of croissants sold in the afternoon
= ⁵₆ x ³₈
= ⁵₁₆

Make the denominators the same.
 ⁵₈ = ¹⁰₁₆ 

Number of croissants that Vanessa sold in the morning = 10 u
Number of croissants that Vanessa sold in the afternoon = 5 u

Number of more croissants that Vanessa sold in the morning than in the afternoon
= 10 u - 5 u
= 5 u

5 u = 60

1 u = 60 ÷ 5 = 12

Total number of croissants that Vanessa made
= 16 u
= 16 x 12
= 192

Answer(s): 192
