P.O.W.: Baking!

Display your final answer using pictures, numbers, and words. As always, annotate (add labels) to your equation to make your math thinking more clear.


Room 103 wants to bake cookies and sell them at school in order to raise money for charity. Here are some facts:

FACTS
Kimberley Population: 277
B.A.S. Population: 83
Time to preheat over to correct temperature: 12 minutes
Number of cookies that can be cooked per pan: 12
Number of pans that can fit in the over at once: 4
Cooking time for one batch of cookies: 16 minutes
Time to take one batch out of the oven and add the next: 90 seconds



a) Decide the price for a package of 3 small cookies
b) Estimate how many students will buy cookies and explain your thinking
c) Based on the number of cookies you think we could sell, how much time will we need to spend baking? (Make sure you take into account all of the information above in the FACTS section)
