Two pie charts represent the distribution of total cookies (butter + chocolate) and total chocolate cookies produced by four companies: A, B, C, and D. The total number of butter cookies produced by companies A and B are 110 and 30 respectively.

Using the data, find how much less the total butter cookies produced by company C are compared to those produced by company D.

Question

Two pie charts represent the distribution of total cookies (butter + chocolate) and total chocolate cookies produced by four companies: A, B, C, and D. The total number of butter cookies produced by companies A and B are 110 and 30 respectively.

Using the data, find how much less the total butter cookies produced by company C are compared to those produced by company D.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Let us denote the total cookies produced by companies C and D as follows:
   - Company C: Total cookies = 30 × 10 = 300
   - Company D: Total cookies = 35 × 10 = 350

2. Similarly, total chocolate cookies produced by companies C and D are:
   - Company C: Chocolate cookies = 25 × 6 = 150
   - Company D: Chocolate cookies = 40 × 6 = 240

3. Calculate butter cookies produced by each company by subtracting chocolate cookies from total cookies:
   - Butter cookies by C = 300 - 150 = 150
   - Butter cookies by D = 350 - 240 = 110

4. Find the difference between butter cookies produced by C and D:
   $$150 - 110 = 40$$

**Answer:** 40
