Correct answer: A. Amber

  • A. Amber

  • D. Darcy

Explanation

Amber has enough Pastry to make 4 Tarte Tatin. Amber has enough Apples to make 4 Tarte Tatin. Amber has enough Caster Sugar to make 4 Tarte Tatin. Amber has enough Apple Juice to make 3 Tarte Tatin. Amber has enough Vanilla to make 4 Tarte Tatin. Amber has enough Butter to make 4 Tarte Tatin. The maximum number of Tarte Tatin that Amber can make is determined by the ingredient that allows the least complete portions, i.e. here Apple Juice is only enough for 3 Tarte Tatin, so Amber can make 3 Tarte Tatin in total. Bekim has enough Pastry to make 6 Tarte Tatin. Bekim has enough Apples to make 3 Tarte Tatin. Bekim has enough Caster Sugar to make 4 Tarte Tatin. Bekim has enough Apple Juice to make 5 Tarte Tatin. Bekim has enough Vanilla to make 3 Tarte Tatin. Bekim has enough Butter to make 2 Tarte Tatin. The maximum number of Tarte Tatin that Bekim can make is determined by the ingredient that allows the least complete portions, i.e. here Butter is only enough for 2 Tarte Tatin, so Bekim can make 2 Tarte Tatin in total. Cairo has enough Pastry to make 4 Tarte Tatin. Cairo has enough Apples to make 4 Tarte Tatin. Cairo has enough Caster Sugar to make 4 Tarte Tatin. Cairo has enough Apple Juice to make 2 Tarte Tatin. Cairo has enough Vanilla to make 2 Tarte Tatin. Cairo has enough Butter to make 4 Tarte Tatin. The maximum number of Tarte Tatin that Cairo can make is determined by the ingredient that allows the least complete portions, i.e. here Apple Juice and Vanilla are only enough for 2 Tarte Tatin, so Cairo can make 2 Tarte Tatin in total. Darcy has enough Pastry to make 5 Tarte Tatin. Darcy has enough Apples to make 1 Tarte Tatin. We do not need to calculate further because it is clear that Darcy cannot make more than 1 Tarte Tatin due to lack of apples. Therefore, the answer is A, Amber, as she can make the most Tarte Tatin with these ingredients
