The number of pies present are 6
Solution:
Given that, there are 11 times as many cakes as there is pies.
A worker counts that there are 60 more cakes than pies.
We have to find that how many pies is there?
Let the number of pies be p, then number of cakes will be 11p.
Now, according to the given information,
Number of cakes = 60 + number of pies
11p = 60 + p
11p – p = 60
10p = 60
p = 6
Hence, the number of pies present are 6
