A bakery made some kaya, chocolate and egg muffins. For every 2 kaya muffins that were made, 1 egg muffin were made. For every 8 kaya muffins that were made, 7 chocolate muffins were made.
- Find the ratio of the number of kaya muffins to chocolate muffins to egg muffins made.
- After the bakery made another 22 egg muffins, 25% of the muffins now were egg muffins. How many kaya muffins did the bakery make?
(a)
Kaya |
Chocolate |
Egg |
2x4 |
|
1x4 |
8x1 |
7x1 |
|
8 u |
7 u |
4 u |
Kaya : Chocolate : Egg
8 : 7 : 4
(b)
|
Kaya |
Chocolate |
Egg |
Before |
15 u |
4 u |
Change |
No change |
+ 22 |
After |
3x5 = 15 u |
1x5 = 5 u |
Total number of kaya and chocolate muffins
= 7 u + 8 u
= 15 u
Increase in the number of egg muffins
= 5 u - 4 u
= 1 u
1 u = 22
Number of kaya muffins
= 8 u
= 8 x 22
= 176
Answer(s): (a) 8 : 7 : 4 ; (b) 176
