Question

There are 24 muffins in a bakery. If 3/8 of the muffins are blueberry, how many muffins are strawberrie?

Answer 1

Hello there,
8 units = 24
1 unit= 24 / 8 
         = 3
Blueberry= 3 x 3
                = 9
Strawberry(8-3=5u)= 5 x 3
                               = 15

Hope this helps :))

Answer 2

3/8 = 9 blueberry muffins so 15 (or 5/8) of the muffins should be strawberry if that's the only other kind of muffins in this equation.
