Grandma baked many biscuit cakes. She glazed a quarter of all the cakes with chocolate, and decorated a third of the rest of the cakes with nuts. Half of the remaining cakes were decorated with fruit, and then she put whipped cream on the final 15 cakes. How many cakes did Grandma bake?

Grandma baked 72 cakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x=biscuits cake baked by grandma

1/4x=chocolate

1/3x=nuts

1/4+1/3=3+4/12

=7/12x

Remaining

X-7/12x

=12-7x/12

=5/12x

1/2 of 5/12x=fruit

5/24x =fruit

Remaining

5/12x-5/24x=15

10-5/24x=15

5/24x=15

x=15÷5/24

=15*24/5

=360/5

=72

x=72 cakes
