Answer 1

Answer:

he would have to sell 30 cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

if you take the amount it actually cost to make it and the amount he is selling them for you would first do

1.80 - 3.00 = 1.20$

after you get 1 dollar and 20 cents you would divide it by 36 dollars to get 30

to check your answer do 30 x 1.20 = 36.00

Answer 2

Bob will have to make 12 cakes. 36.00 ÷ 3 = 12.
12×3=36
