Solution

Step 1: Find out how much flour is used for one pancake. This can be done by dividing the total amount of flour used (280 g) by the number of pancakes made (35).

280 g ÷ 35 = 8 g per pancake

Step 2: Now, find out how many pancakes can be made with the total amount of flour Jaime has (400 g). This can be done by dividing the total amount of flour by the amount of flour used for one pancake.

400 g ÷ 8 g/pancake = 50 pancakes

So, Jaime can make a maximum of 50 pancakes with 400 g of flour.
