The maximum number of biscuits that Jamie can make with his ingredients is; 80 biscuits
<h3>How to solve Algebra Word Problems?</h3>
We are given the ingredients to make 20 biscuits as;
150 g of butter
75 g of caster sugar
100g of plain flour
200 g of chocolate chips
Thus, quantity to make 1 biscuit is;
Butter = 150/20 = 7.5 g
Caster sugar = 75/20 = 3.75 g
Plain flour = 180/20 = 9g
chocolate chips = 50/20 = 2.5 g
No, Jamie has the following;
800 g of butter
700 g of caster sugar
1000g of plain flour
200 g of chocolate chips
Thus, number portion of each material is;
Butter; 800/7.5 ≈ 106
Caster sugar; 700/3.75 = 186
Plain flour; 1000/9 = 111
Chocolate chips; 200/2.5 = 80
The least number here would give use the maximum number of biscuits that Jamie can make with his ingredients.
