Question

Deon has to buy all the butter she needs to make 60 biscuits. She buys the butter in 250 g packs. (b) How many packs of butter does Deon need to buy?

Answer 1

200g of sugar, 600g of flour, 400g of butter

Explanation:

50g sugar = 15 biscuits

3 x 50g = flour --) 150g = flour

2 x 50g = butter --) 100g = butter

60/15 = 4; 4 times as much

4 x 50g = 200g of sugar

4 x 150g = 600g of flour

4 x 100g = 400g of butter
