Answer:
4.12 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Regular cakes:
1 dozen normal sponge cakes: 264 g plain flour
Vegetarian cakes:
1 dozen cakes: 264 g plain flour
4 eggs are replaced by 4 * 30 g of flour = 120 g flour
total flour for 1 dozen vegetarian cakes = 264 g + 120 g = 384 g
Proportion for regular cakes:
12 cakes to 264 g flour = 100 cakes to x grams flour
12/264 = 100/x
12x = 26400
x = 2200
2200 g flour for 100 regular cakes
Proportion for vegetarian cakes:
12 cakes to 384 g flour = 60 cakes to y grams flour
12/384 = 60/y
12y = 384 * 60
12y = 23040
y = 1920
1920 g flour for 60 vegetarian cakes
Total flour needed:
2200 g + 1920 g = 4120 g
4120 g * 1 kg/(1000 g) = 4.12 kg
Answer: 4.12 kg
