Answer:
90 muffins :)
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm here to help ya!
First, identify.
What do we know?
We know that she made 36 blueberry muffins.
We know that blueberry muffins are ONLY 40% of what she makes daily.
Now, to find whats missing, set up a proportion. I find it easiest to do this:
36 muffins x muffins
---------------- = ------------------
40 % 100%
To get from 40 to 100, multiply by 2.5. ( I got this by doing 100/40).
Now, to finish and solve for x, do the same for 36.
36*2.5=90
She makes 90 muffins on Monday!
To check my work, I did this:
40% of 90=what?
It is 36. The answer is correct.
