Question

here is a list of ingredients for making 12 rock cakes nihay wants to make 42 cakes does she have enough sugar to make 42rock cakes u must show your working

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that for 12 rock cakes we need 225g flour and 75g sugar to get 42 rock cakes we need to multiply the number of ingredients by 3.5 (42/12 =3.5)

This gets us 787.5 g flour and 262.5 g sugar.

Show work:

$42 \div 12 = 3.5$

$225 \times 3.5 = 787.5$

$75 \times 3.5 = 262.5$

$787.5 < 800$

$262.5 < 300$

Nishat has enough flour and sugar to make 42 rock cakes.
