Answer:

27 muffins.

Explanation:

We have been given that a baker made 60 muffins for a cafe. By noon, 45% of the muffins were sold.

To find the number of muffins sold by noon let us find 45% of 60.

$\text{The number of muffins sold by noon}=(45)/(100)* 60$

$\text{The number of muffins sold by noon}=0.45* 60$

$\text{The number of muffins sold by noon}=27$

Therefore, 27 muffins were sold by noon.
