Answer
Use multiplication.
Another hint
This problem can be set out like this: 15 + 40 = answer
Answer
To find out one quarter (1/4) of a number, you divide that number by 4.
For this problem, one (1) batch of biscuits = 20 biscuits.
Another Hint
One quarter (1/4) of 20 = 5, so after Tala ate a quarter of the first batch, there were 15 biscuits left.
Another hint
Tala baked another 2 batches of biscuits. This is a total of another 40 biscuits which must be added to the number of biscuits left over from the first batch (15 biscuits).
