Part One
INTRODUCTION
Cakes come in a variety of forms and flavours and among favourite deserts served during
special occasions such as birthday parties, Hari Raya, wedding and others. Cakes are treasured
not only because of their wonderful taste but also in the art of cake baking and cake decorating.
Baking a cake offers a tasty way to practice math skills, such as fractions and ratios, in a
real-world context. Many steps of baking a cake, such as counting ingredients and setting the
oven timer, provide basic math practise for young children. Older children and teenagers can
use more sophisticated math to solve baking dilemmas, such as how to make a cake recipe
larger or smaller or how to determine what size slices you should cut. Practicing math while
baking not only improves your math skills, it helps you become a more flexible and resourceful
baker.

MATHEMATICS IN CAKE BAKING AND CAKE DECORATING
GEOMETRY
To determine suitable dimension for the cake,to assist in designing and decorating cakes
that comes in many attractive shapes and designs,to estimate volume of cake to be produced.
When making a batch of cake batter,you end up with a certain volume,determined by the
recipe.The baker must then choose the appropriate size and shape of pan to achieve the
desired result.If the pan is to big,the cake becomes too short.If the pan is too small,the cake
become too tall.This leads into the next situations.
The ratio of the surface area to the volumes determine how much crust a baked good will
have.The more surface area there is, compared to the volume,the faster the item will bake,andthe less inside there will be.For a very large,thick item, it will take a long time for the heat to
penetrate to the centre.To avoid having a rock-hard outside in this case,the baker will have to
lower the temperature a little bit and bake for a longer time.
We mix ingredients in round bowls because cubes would have corners where unmixed
ingredient would accumulate, and we would have a hard time scraping them into the batter.
CALCULUS (DIFFERENTATION)
To determine minimum or maximum amount of ingredients for cake-baking,to estimate
minimum or maximum amount of cream needed for decorating,to estimate minimum or
maximum size of cake produced.

PROGRESSION
To determine total weight/volume of multi-storey cakes with proportional dimensions, to
estimate total ingredients needed for cake-baking, to estimate total amount of cream
decoration.
For example when we make a cake with many layers, we must fix the difference of
diameter of the two layers. So we can say that it used arithmetic progression. When the
diameter of the first layer of the cake is 8 and the diameter of second layer of the cake is 6,
then the diameter of the third layer should be 4.
In this case, we use arithmetic progression where the difference of the diameter is
constant that is 2. When the diameter decreases, the weight also decreases. That is the way
how the cake is balance to prevent it from smooch. We can also use ratio, because when we
prepare the ingredient for each layer of the cake, we need to decrease its ratio from lower layer
to upper layer. When we cut the cake, we can use fraction to devide the cake according to the
total people that will eat the cake.

Part TwoBest Bakery shop received an order from your school to bake a 5kg of round cake as shown in
Diagram 1 for the Teachers Day celebration.
1) If a kilogram of cake has a volume of 38000cm3, and the height of the cake is to be 7.0 cm,
the diameter of the baking tray to be used to fit the 5 kg cake ordered by your school 3800 is
Volume of 5kg cake = Base area of cake x Height of cake
3800 x 5 = (3.142)()² x 7
(3.142) = (
)²
863.872 = ()²
= 29.392
= 58.784 cm
2) The inner dimensions of oven: 80cm length, 60cm width, 45cm height
a) The formula that formed for d in terms of h by using the formula for volume of cake,
V = 19000 is:
19000 = (3.142)()²h

Table 1
b) i) < 7cm is NOT suitable, because the resulting diameter produced is too large to fit into
the oven. Furthermore, the cake would be too short and too wide, making it less attractive.
b) ii) The most suitable dimensions ( and d) for the cake is = 8cm, = 54.99cm, because it
can fit into the oven, and the size is suitable for easy handling.
c) i) The same formula in 2(a) is used, that is 19000 = (3.142)(
)². The same process is also
used, that is, make d the subject. An equation which is suitable and relevant for the graph:

ii) Based from the graph:
a) when = 10.5 cm
= 10.5 cm, log = 1.021, log = 1.680, = 47.86 cm
b) when = 42 cm
= 42 cm, log = 1.623, log = 1.140, = 13.80 cm
3) The cake with fresh cream, with uniform thickness 1cm is decorated
a) The amount of fresh cream needed to decorated the cake, using the dimensions Ive
suggested in 2(b)(ii)
My answer in 2(b)(ii) = 8cm, = 54.99cm
Amount of fresh cream = volume of fresh cream needed (area height)
Amount of fresh cream = volume of cream at the top surface + volume of cream at the side
surface
The bottom surface area of cake is not counted, because were decorating the visible part of
the cake only (top and sides). Obviously, we dont decorate the bottom part of the cake.
Volume of cream at the top surface
=Area of top surface
Height of cream
= (3.142) 1
=2375
Volume of cream at the side surface
=Area of side surface Height of cream
= (Circumference of cake Height of cake) Height of cream
=2(3.142)(
)(8) 1
=1382.23
Therefore, amount of fresh cream = 2375 + 1382.23 = 3757.23

b) Three other shapes (the shape of the base of the cake) for the cake with same
height which is depends on the 2(b)(ii) and volume 19000.
The volume of top surface is always the same for all shapes (since height is same),
My answer (with = 8, and volume of cream on top surface = = 237
) :
1 ± Rectangle-shaped base (cuboid)
height
length width
1900 = base area height
base area =
length width = 2375
By trial and improvement, 2375 = 50 47.5 (length = 50, width = 47.5, height = 8)
volume of cream
= 2(Area of left and right side surface)(Height of cream) + 2(Area of front and back side
surface)(Height of cream) + volume of top surface
=2(50 8)(1) + 2(47.5 8)(1) + 2375
=3935

2 ± Triangle-shaped base
width
slant height
1900 = base area height
base area =
base area = 2375
length width = 2375
Length width = 4750
By trial and improvement, 4750 = 95 50 (length = 95, width = 50)
Slant length of triangle = = 98.23
Amount of cream
=Area of rectangular front side surface(Height of cream) + 2(Area of slant rectangular left/right
side surface)(Height of cream) + Volume of top surface
=(50 8)(1) + 2(98.23 8)(1) + 2375 = 4346.68

3 ± Pentagon-shaped base
width
19000 = base areaheight
base area = 2375 = area of 5 similar isosceles triangles in a pentagon
2375 = 5(length width)
475 = length width
By trial and improvement, 475 = 25 19 (length = 25, width = 19)
amount of cream
=5(area of one rectangular side surface)(height of cream) + volume of top surface
=5(19 8) + 2375 = 3135
c)Based on the values above, the shape that required the least amount of fresh cream to be used is :
Pentagon-shapedcake, since it requires only 3135 of cream to be used.

Part Thr eeWhen theres minimumor maximum, well, theres differentiation and quadratic functions.
The minimum height, and its corresponding minimum diameter, is calculated by using thedifferentiation and function.
METHOD 1 : DIFFERENTIATION
Two equations for this method: the formula for volume of cake ( as in 2(a)), and the formula for
amount ( volume ) of cream to be used for the round cake ( as in 3(a)).

Therefore, 18.22cm,
I would choose not to bake a cake with such dimensions because its dimensions are not
suitable ( the height is too high) and therefore less attractive. Furthermore, such cakes are
difficult to handle easily.

Further Exploration
Best Bakery received an order to bake a multi-storey cake for Merdeka Day celebration, as
shown in Diagram 2.
The height of each cake is 6.0 cm and the radius of the largest cake is 31.0 cm. The radius of the
second cake is 10% less than the radius of the cake, the radius of the third cake is 10% less than
the radius of the second and so on.
Given:
height, h of each cake = 6 cm
radius of largest cake = 31 cm
radius of cake = 10% smaller than cake
radius of cake = 10% smaller than cake
31, 27.9, 25.11, 22.599,
a = 31, r =
V = (3.142)
a)By using the formula fir volume V = (3.142)
h, with h = 6 to get the volume of cakes.
Volume of , , , and cakes:
Radius of cake = 31, Volume of cake = (3.142)(6) = 18116.772
Radius of cake = 27.9, Volume of cake = (3.142)(6) = 14674.585
Radius of cake = 25.11, Volume of cake = (3.142)(6) = 11886.414
Radius of cake = 22.599, Volume of cake = (3.142)(6) = 9627.995
The volume form number pattern:
18116.772, 14674.585, 11886.414, 9627.995,
8/6/2019 FARAH (ara)

(it is a geometric progression with first term, a = 18116.772 and ratio, r = / = / = =
0.81)
a) The total mass of all the cakes should not exceed 15 kg (total mass < 15 kg, change tovolume: total volume < 57000 ), so the maximun number of cakes that needs to be
baked is
=
= 57000,a = 18116.772 and r = 0.81
= 0.59779
=
0.40221 =
������
n = 4.322 verifying the answer
therefore, n
verifying the answer:
when = 5:
= (18116.772(1-))/(1-0.81) = 62104.443 > 57000 ( > 57000, n = 5 is not suitable)
when n = 4:
= (18116.772(1-))/(1-0.81) = 54305.767 < 57000 ( is suitable)

Conclusion
Geometry is the study of angles and triangles, perimeter, area and volume.It differsfrom algebra in that one develops a logical structure where mathematical relationships
are proved and applied. An arithmetic progression (AP) or arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such
that the different of any two successive members of the sequence is a constant.
A geometric progression,also known as a geometric sequence,is a sequence of numbers
where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed non-
zero number called the common ratio.
Differentiation is essentially the process of finding an equation which will give you the
gradient (slope,rise over run, etc.) at any point along the curve.Say you have y =
.The equation y = 2x will give you the gradient of y at any point along that curve.
