36

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: 36 cakes

Explanation:

There are 4 bakers in this kitchen and they can each bake a cake in 20 minutes.

This means that the number of cakes baked in 20 minutes is 4 cakes.

3 hours in minutes is:

= 3 * 60

= 180 minutes

The number of 20 minute periods in 3 hours is therefore:

= 180/20.

= 9

If 4 cakes are baked in 20 minutes, the number of cakes in 180 is:

= 4 * 9

= 36 cakes
