Question

Snowball bakes 50 cakes and 30 cookies. 20 cakes and 7 cookies are left after packing some of them in a bag. How many cakes can the bag hold?

• A. 40 cakes
• B. 30 cakes
• C. 30 cakes
• D. 23 cakes

Answer 1

The correct option is B 30 cakes

Number of cakes Snowball bakes = 50
Number of cakes left after packing = 20
Number of cakes the bag can hold = 50 − 20
We use skip counting of 10 to find the answer.


So, the bag can hold 30 cakes.
