Problema Solution

adam has a recipe for six blueberry muffins, each with a weight of 85 grams.

To make the muffins, he weights two eggs and puts them in the bowl. he then adds double the weight of the two eggs in flour, half the weight of the two eggs in sugar,a quarter of the weight of the two eggs in butter and half the weights of the two eggs in blueberries.

what was the weight of the two eggs he used, in grams?

Answer provided by our tutors

let weight of 2 eggs = x gm

x+ 2x+ x/2 + x/4 +x/2= 85

(4x+8x+2x+x+2x) = 85*4

17x = 340

x = 340/17  = 20 gm
