A recipe for blueberry muffins states that it yields 12 muffins, with 270 calories per muffin. You instead decide to make
mini-muffins, and the recipe yields 20 mini-muffins. If you eat 7 mini-muffins, how many calories will you consume?

Answer:

The calories you will consume are 1134 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the problem

∵ A recipe for blueberry muffins states that it yields 12 muffins, with 270

  calories per muffin

→ Find the total calories of the 12 muffins

∴ The total calories of them = 12 × 270

The total calories of them = 3240 calories

∵ You instead decide to make mini-muffins, and the recipe yields 20

   mini-muffins

→ That means the same amount of calories are in 20 mini-muffins, to find

   the calories of each one divide the total amount of calories by 20

∵ The calories per mini-muffin = 3240 ÷ 20

The calories per mini-muffin = 162 calories

∵ You will eat 7 mini-muffins

∴ The calories you consume = 7 × 162

The calories you will consume = 1134 calories
