David has made pancake batter for Shrove Tuesday.
When David poured the batter into his cuboid container, the container was ⅔ full.
The container has the following dimensions:
Length 15cm
Width 12cm
Height 14cm
If 1 pancake uses 175ml of batter, how many full pancakes can David cook?
Answer:
Total volume of container = 15 x 12 x 14 = 2,520 ml
Volume of batter = 2/3 x 2,520 = 1,680 ml
1,680 / 175 = 9.6
Therefore you can make 9 whole pancakes (and a small one!)
