beth makes batches of blueberry muffins Each batch is 6 muffins. She makes 2.5 batches of blueberry muffins. How many batches of banana muffins should make if she wants to have a total of 60 muffins

Answer 1

Blueberry + banana = 60 muffins

Let x=number of batches of banana muffins

6(2.5) + 6(x) = 60

15+6x = 60

Subtract 15 from both sides of the equation

15+6x-15 = 60-15

Simplify

6x=45

Divide both sides by 6

6x/6=45/6

x=7.5 batches of banana muffins
