jessica needs to bake 50 muffins her baking pan holds 12 muffins how many rounds of baking will she need to do

Sagot :

Let x be the number of rounds of baking. Jessica's baking pan holds 12 muffins. Total 50 muffins is to be made. Hence, we can write,

[tex]\begin{gathered} 12x=50 \\ x=\frac{50}{12}=\frac{25}{6}=4\frac{1}{6} \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, we obtained that x is equal to 4 1/6. The number of rounds cannot be a fraction. Here, the number of rounds is equal to the sum of 4 and a fraction 1/6. So, we can say that 5 rounds is needed to make 50 muffins.
