This is an equal concept question, the units for buns sold of each type should be drawn to the same total size.
i.e 2 units of chocolate buns to be the same size as 5 units of vanilla buns. Then, further sub division can be done to get 10 units each.
The way you've drawn it may confuse the student into thinking the number of units of each type of bun left(1) is of the same size
