Question


On the basis of customer survey, the Cookie &Co. baker, decides to increase the sugar content in the pastries by 100% and reduce the flour content by two thirds and water content by 3/4. What will now be the total volume of the daily consumption of sugar and flour respectively in m3?


Options:
A .   76 and 81
B .   81 and 76
C .   93 and 93
D .   110 and 62
E .   none of these
Answer: Option A
:
A

option (a) He increased the sugar content in pastries from 21 to 42 and so the total sugar requirement increased from 55 to 55 + 21 = 76 m3. Further flour content in pastries reduced by 2/3 * 18 = 12m3. Thus flour content became 93 – 12 = 81. Therefore now the total volume of daily consumption of sugar and flour respectively, in m3 becomes 76 and 81 respectively.
