Christian made 1000 pancakes.

Explanation:

Let us represent the total amount of Pancake made by Christian as = K

From the problem;

Christian ate $\frac{3}{5}$ of the pancake in the morning = $\frac{3}{5}$ * K = $\frac{3}{5}$ K

We know that Christian cannot eat her pancake and at the same time have it, the remaining pancake will then be:

total amount of cake - fraction eaten

Remainder = K - $\frac{3}{5}$ K= $\frac{2}{5}$ K

In the afternoon, we know that she ate 1/4 of the remaining cake:

$\frac{1}{5}$ K* $\frac{2}{5}$ K = $\frac{1}{10}$ K

The remaining cake in the afternoon will be:

Total amount of cake remaining from morning - amount eaten in the afternoon

= $\frac{2}{5}$ K - $\frac{1}{10}$ K

= $\frac{3}{10}$ K

The fraction of the cake remaining in the afternoon is $\frac{3}{10}$ K

Since she had 300cakes left in the afternoon, then :

$\frac{3}{10}$ K= 300

K = 1000 pancakes

Therefore Christian made 1000 pancakes.
