At the start of her shift at Midtown Bakery, Megan made some batches of cookies that called for 3 cups of flour each. Then, she used the remaining 8 cups of flour she had to make a pan of muffins. She started her shift with a 20-cup bag of flour.

Which equation can you use to find how many batches of cookies, x, Megan made?
How many batches of cookies did Megan make?

Respuesta :

Meghan made 4 batches of cookies from the 20-cup bag of flour

Let x represent the number of batches of cookies Megan made. Since each batch is made from 3 cups of flour and the remaining  8 cups of flour she had to make a pan of muffins.

Since she had initially 20-cup bag of flour, hence:

3x + 8 = 20

3x = 12

x = 4

Hence Meghan made 4 batches of cookies from the 20-cup bag of flour.
