Strickland · Answer 2

1 Day:-

No of Muffins baked = 24

No of Muffins given away = 3

No of muffins sold = 24-3=21

No of Cupcakes baked = 36

No of Cupcakes given away = 4

No of Cupcakes sold = 36-4=32

5 Days:-

No of muffins sold in 1 day=21

In 5 days=21*5=105

No of cupcakes sold in 1 day=32

In 5 days=32*5=160

Total (muffin+cupcake)

=160+105

=265

The answer is 265
