Using proportions, it is found that one mechanic could assemble 5 bicycles in 8 hours, and it would take 40 hours to assemble 25 bicycles.

The equation is: b = 0.625t.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, two mechanics can assemble 10 bicycles in 8 hours. How many bicycles could one mechanic assemble in 8 hours? Hence the <em>rule of three</em> is given by:

2 mechanics - 10 bicycles.

1 mechanic - x bicycle.

Applying cross multiplication:

2x = 10 -> x = 5 bicycles in 8 hours.

Hence the equation for the number of bicycles in t hours of a single mechanic is given by:

b = 5/8t = 0.625t.

For 25 bicycles, we have that:

25 = 0.625t.

t = 25/0.625.

t = 40 hours.

The first step to solve this problem is to find the area of the rectangular piece of fabric.

A of triangle = bh/2

A = (14 cm) (6 cm) /2

A = 84 cm^2 / 2

A = 42 cm

And since there are 31 pieces of the fabric, the total area of all the pieces of fabric is:

31 pieces of fabric x 42 square centimeters per piece = 1,302 square centimeters

To computer how many congruent triangular patches can be cut, you have to divide the total area of the fabric pieces with the area of the congruent triangle:

1,302 square centimeters / 21 square centimeters = 62

Therefore, Leia can cut 62 patches.
