Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of cakes baked by Calvin and Susie = 3 : 7
Cakes baked by Calvin = 3x
Cakes baked by Susie = 7x
Cakes baked by Calvin = Cakes baked by Susie - 60
3x = 7x - 60
7x - 60 = 3x
7x = 3x + 60
7x - 3x = 60
4x = 60
x = 60/4
x = 15
Cakes baked by Calvin = 3*15 = 45
Cakes baked by Susie = 7 *15 = 105
Total cakes baked = 45 + 105 = 150
They both baked 150 cakes altogether.
