Here are the ingredients to make 12 cupcakes. For 12 cupcakes
200 g butter
200 g caster sugar
4 eggs
250 g flour
Mark is making cupcakes to sell at his school play.
Mark wants to make 1 cupcake for each adult and 2 cupcakes for each child.
There will be 152 adults and 80 children at the school play.
Mark can get these ingredients from the school kitchen.
5 kg butter
5 kg caster sugar
90 eggs
5 kg flour
Make a shopping list of any ingredients Mark still needs, showing the amount of each
ingredient.

Mark needs 2 kg butter, 2 kg caster sugar, 14 eggs, and 1.5 kg flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, first you double the number of kids, as Mark wants each kid to have two cupcakes, not one. (Then add 80+80 to get 160)

Now add the adults to children: 160+152=312

now divide by 12 to see how many batches of cupcakes he needs to make.

312÷12=26 So he needs to make 26 batches

Now here are the ingredients needed to make 12 batches of cupcakes (I multiplied the amount of each ingredient by 26)

5200 g (5.2 kg) butter, 5200 g (5.2 kg) caster sugar, 104 eggs, and 6500 g (6.5 kg) flour.

now make the measurements the same as Mark's ingredients (or the other way around)

(to save time I am not showing each one, just the normal ingredients turned into kg and compared)

5 kg butter < 5.2 kg butter

5 kg caster sugar < 5.2 kg butter

90 eggs < 104 eggs

5 kg flour < 6.5 kg flour

Now do a little subtraction

5.2 kg-5 kg = 2 kg butter is needed

5.2 kg - 5 kg = 2 kg caster sugar is needed

104 - 90 = 14 eggs needed

6.5 kg - 5 kg = 1.5 kg flour needed

And there you go :D

correct answer:

i^31 = -i
