Question

A customer placed an order with a bakery for muffins.The Baker has completed 37.5% of the order after baking 81 muffins.How many muffins did the customer order.

Answer 1

Answer:

The total muffins ordered are 216

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of muffins ordered by customer be "x"

It is given that, baker has completed 37.5% of total muffins,

That is, $\frac{37.5(x)}{100}$

It is also said that he has finished baking 81 muffins.

thus,

$\frac{37.5(x)}{100}$ = 81

$x = \frac{(81)(100)}{37.5} = 216$

Thus, the total muffins are 216.
