Question

Paul bakes loaves of bread and bread rolls in the ratio of 2:5. If he bakes 750 bread rolls, how many loaves will he bake? A recipe for 24 chocolate chip cookies requires: 200 g sugar 100 g butter 1 egg 1 tsp vanilla extract 180 g flour 140 g melted chocolate 170 g chocolate chips

Answer 1

Paul bakes 300 bread loaves. I don’t know the question you’re asking for the second question.

Answer 2

He will bake 300 loaves of bread.

Explanation:

Paul bakes loaves of bread and bread rolls in the ratio of 2 : 5

Suppose, the number of loaves of bread he will bake
`=x`

Given that, he bakes 750 bread rolls.

So, according to the given ratio, we will get......

`(loaves\ of\ bread)/(bread\ rolls)=(2)/(5)\\ \\ (x)/(750)=(2)/(5)\\ \\ 5x=1500\ [by\ cross\ multiplication]\\ \\ x=(1500)/(5)\\ \\ x=300`

So, he will bake 300 loaves of bread.
