Answer:
100 muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
6 cups 15 cups
------------- = -----------
40 muffins x muffins
Using cross products
6x = 40*15
Divide each side by 6
6x/6 = 40*15/6
x =100
If she could bake 40 muffins with 6 cups, then she could bake 80 muffins with 12 cups. Then, we have 3 cups left over, which is half of 6, meaning she can only bake half of her regular amount with 3 cups, which would be 20. 80+20=100
40+40+20=100

You might just think that I subtracted but on the triangle the last side is the base which is always smaller.
