Answer 2

Answer:

800 grams of sugar is used to bake 40 cupcakes.

Step by step explanation:

Given that 5 kg sugar is used to bake 250 cupcakes.

=> 5 kg = 250 cupcakes

=> 250/5 = 50

So, 1 kg sugar is used to bake 50 cupcakes.

=> 1000 grams = 50 cupcakes                                      [ 1 kg = 1000 grams]

=> 1000/50 = 20

So, 20 grams of sugar is used 1 cupcake.

What is the sugar used for 40 cupcakes?

=> 40*20 = 800 grams.

Therefore, 800 grams of sugar is used to bake 40 cupcakes.
