Answer:

4.12 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular cakes:

1 dozen normal sponge cakes: 264 g plain flour

Vegetarian cakes:

1 dozen cakes: 264 g plain flour

4 eggs are replaced by 4 * 30 g of flour = 120 g flour

total flour for 1 dozen vegetarian cakes = 264 g + 120 g = 384 g

Proportion for regular cakes:

12 cakes to 264 g flour = 100 cakes to x grams flour

12/264 = 100/x

12x = 26400

x = 2200

2200 g flour for 100 regular cakes

Proportion for vegetarian cakes:

12 cakes to 384 g flour = 60 cakes to y grams flour

12/384 = 60/y

12y = 384 * 60

12y = 23040

y = 1920

1920 g flour for 60 vegetarian cakes

Total flour needed:

2200 g + 1920 g = 4120 g

4120 g * 1 kg/(1000 g) = 4.12 kg

Answer: 4.12 kg
