Answer:
The total number of cupcakes ordered=216
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of cupcakes ordered that the baker completed can be expressed as;
C=P×t
where;
C=Total number of completed order of cupcakes
P=percentage of order completed
t=total number of ordered cupcakes
In our case;
C=81
P=37.5%
t=t
replacing in the above expression;
81=37.5%×t
(37.5/100)×t=81
t=81×100/37.5
t=216
The total number of cupcakes ordered=216
