Paul bakes loaves of bread and bread rolls in the ratio of 2:5. If he bakes 750 bread rolls, how many loaves will he bake?

300 loaves

Step-by-step explanation:

the 5 part of the ratio refers to 750 bread rolls , then

750 ÷ 5 = 150 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , so

2 × 150 = 300 ← number of loaves baked

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
