The Coffee Spot recently served 12 pastries, including 3 bran muffins. Considering this data, how many of the next 16 pastries served should you expect to be bran muffins?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries = 4 bran muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total number of pastries = 12

Bran muffins (Include) = 3

Find:

Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries.

Computation:

⇒ Ratio of bran muffins to total pastries = 3 / 12

⇒ Ratio of bran muffins to total pastries = 1 / 4

⇒ Ratio of bran muffins to total pastries = 0.25

Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries = Number of total pastries × Ratio of bran muffins to total pastries

⇒ Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries = 16 × 0.25

Number of bran m muffins in 16 pastries = 4 bran muffins
