a recipe for blueberry muffins states that it yields 12 muffins, with 280 calories per muffin. you instead decide to make mini-muffins, and the recipe yields 20 mini-muffins. if you eat 5 mini-muffins, how many calories will you consume?

Answer:

840 calories

Explanation:

Total calories in the recipe : 280*12 = 3360 calories

calories in 1 mini muffin : 3360/20 = 168 calories

calories in 5 mini muffins : 168* 5 = 840 calories

hope this helps :))
