Answer:

Number of curry buns is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of buns =40.

Ratio of number of raisin buns to the number of butter buns to the number of curry buns = 7:5:8

Let number of raisin buns = 7X.

Let number of butter buns =5X.

Let number of curry buns = 8X.

Therefore,

7X+5X+8X = 40

20X = 40

X= (40/20) = 2.

Therefore number of curry buns =8X = 8×2 =16.
