2 DHS 2019 Year 6 H2 Mathematics Preliminary Examination Paper 1 1 A confectionary bakes 20 banana cakes, 50 chocolate cakes and 3 0 durian cakes every day. The total price of 1 banana cake, 1 chocolate cake and 1 durian cake is $29.50. On a particular day, at 7 pm, the confectionary has collected $730 from the sales of th e cakes, and there were half the banana cakes, one-tenth of the chocolate cakes and one third of the durian cakes left. In order to sell as many cakes as possible, all cakes were discounted by 40 % from their respective selling price from 7 pm onwards.
