    Yes as the small cupcakes would need 10 spoons (=1/3 of 30) where the large cupcakes would need 10 spoons of sugar (=1/2 of 20).

    Step-by-step explanation:

    30 x 1/3 = 10

    30 x 1/2 = 10

    10+10 = 20

    = 20 spoons of sugar makes 10 of each size cupcakes, so 21 spoons mentioned in the question would be enough.

    yes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1/3x30 is 10 which would be 10 spoons

    1/2x20 is also 10 which would be another 10 spoons

    10+10 equals 20

    you have 21 spoons which means that you will have enough spoons of sugar to make all 50 cupcakes
