Question

The number of blueberry muffins that a baker makes each day is 40% of the total number of muffins she makes.

Part A.
On Monday the baker makes 36 muffins. What is the total number of muffins that the baker makes on Monday?

Part B.
On Tuesday the baker makes a total of 60 muffins. How many blueberry muffins does the baker make on Tuesday?

Answer 1

part a is 14.4 and part b is 24 because you have to put 40% in a decimal and multiply it by how many muffins the baker made each day.
