Question

Peter bought 50 oz of flour for his bakery. He used 17.2 oz to make a loaf of bread, and 1.05 oz for each muffin. How many muffins did Peter make if he had 12.85 oz of flour left over?

Answer 1

Given

• Total Flour = 50 oz
• She used 17.2 oz to make a loaf of bread
• 1.05 oz for each muffin

To Find

• How many muffins did Melanie make if she had 12.85 oz of flour left over?

Solution

• She had 12.85 of flour left over

Therefore

$\sf{He \: \: make \: \: muffin =\dfrac{ 50 - 12.85 -117.2}{1.05} }$

$\sf{He \: \: make \: \: muffin =\dfrac{19.95}{1.05} }$

$\sf{He \: \: make \: \: muffin = 19 }$

• 19 muffins did Melanie make if she had 10.12 oz of flour left over.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total Flour = 50 oz

She used 17.2 oz to make a loaf of bread

1.05 oz for each muffin

To Find

How many muffins did Melanie make if she had 12.85 oz of flour left over?

Solution

She had 12.85 of flour left over

Therefore

\sf{He \: \: make \: \: muffin =\dfrac{ 50 - 12.85 -117.2}{1.05} }Hemakemuffin=

1.05

50−12.85−117.2

\sf{He \: \: make \: \: muffin =\dfrac{19.95}{1.05} }Hemakemuffin=

1.05

19.95

\begin{gathered}\sf{He \: \: make \: \: muffin = 19 }\\\\\end{gathered}

Hemakemuffin=19

19 muffins did Melanie make if she had 10.12 oz of flour left over.
