5 days does it take to sell 640 cupcakes.

Given:

A bakery sells 4 dozen cupcakes every 3 hours.

If the bakery is open 8 hours each day.

4 dozen cupcakes = 4*12 cupcakes

= 48 cupcakes

48 cupcakes = 3 hours

divide by 3 on both sides

3hours/3 = 48/3 cupcakes

1 hour = 16 cupcakes

Number of cupcakes for 8 hours = 8 * 16 = 128 cupcakes.

128 cupcakes sells in one day.

To sell 640 cupcakes = 640/128

= 5 days.

Therefore 5 days does it take to sell 640 cupcakes.
