A bakery made some sardine, chocolate and kaya buns. For every 2 sardine buns that were made, 1 kaya bun were made. For every 5 sardine buns that were made, 4 chocolate buns were made.
- Find the ratio of the number of sardine buns to chocolate buns to kaya buns made.
- After the bakery made another 37 kaya buns, 25% of the buns now were kaya buns. How many sardine buns did the bakery make?
(a)
Sardine |
Chocolate |
Kaya |
2x5 |
|
1x5 |
5x2 |
4x2 |
|
10 u |
8 u |
5 u |
Sardine : Chocolate : Kaya
10 : 8 : 5
(b)
|
Sardine |
Chocolate |
Kaya |
Before |
18 u |
5 u |
Change |
No change |
+ 37 |
After |
3x6 = 18 u |
1x6 = 6 u |
Total number of sardine and chocolate buns
= 8 u + 10 u
= 18 u
Increase in the number of kaya buns
= 6 u - 5 u
= 1 u
1 u = 37
Number of sardine buns
= 10 u
= 10 x 37
= 370
Answer(s): (a) 10 : 8 : 5 ; (b) 370
