Question

A baker tops each specialty cupcake with a flower that he makes from buttercream frosting. He can make 56 flowers each hour. Suppose the baker made 392 flowers yesterday. How many hours did he spend making the flowers?

Answer 1

Answer: 7 hours

Explanation:

Since the baker can make 56 flowers each hour and the baker made 392 flowers yesterday.

The number of hours that he spend making the flowers will be calculated by dividing the number of flowers made by the flowers made each hour. This will be:

= 392 / 56

= 7.

The baker used 7 hours
