Given
i. Tom sells 3 times than Lily
ii. Lily has 58 more cupcakes left than what she sold.
iii. Tom has half the cupcakes as Lily
With the given info, we form the table below.
| Sold | Left | Total baked | |
| Tom | 6U | 1U + 29 | 7U + 29 |
| Lily | 2U | 2U + 58 | 4u + 58 |
Total cup cakes = 1539.
7U + 29 + 4U + 58 = 1539.
11U + 29 + 58 = 1539
11U = 1452, 1U = 132
(a) Total cupcakes Tom baked = 7u + 29 = 924 + 29 = 953
(b) Lily sold = 2U = 132 x 2 = 264
