Question

Mrs.Ali baked some muffins. 3/5 of the muffins were chocolate and the rest were vanilla. After he sold 2/9 of the chocolate muffins and 1/2 of the vanilla muffins, 230 muffins were left. How many chocolate muffins did Mrs.Ali bake?

Answer 1

Answer:

230

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of chocolate: C

Number of Vanilla: V

Total: T

C = (3/5) T

V = (2/5) T

This is the part where I'm not sure.

C (1 - 2/9) + V (1 - 1/2) = T - 230

or

C (1 - 2/9) + V (1 - 1/2) = 230
