take ru only uses eggs for souffles in his restaurant. He uses 3 eggs per suffle. Last week he bought 4 times as many as he baked souffles. Take ru had 18 eggs left over. How many eggs did take ru buy and how many souffles did he make

Respuesta :

Answer:

He bought 72 eggs and made 18 souffles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the number of eggs bought and the number of souffles made in the restaurant

We proceed as follows;

Let the number of souffles baked be x, this means that the number of eggs bought will be 4x eggs

Now, we also can see that from the question, he uses 3 eggs per soufffle baked, this means that the total number of eggs used is 3x

Now, we have 18 eggs left. This means that the difference between the number of eggs bought and the number of eggs used in making souffles = 18

Hence, 4x - 3x = 18

⇒ x = 18

Number of eggs bought = 4x = 4(18) = 72 eggs

Number of souffles made = x = 18 souffles
