Answer:

W = 72

Step by step explanation:

White = W

Red = R

W + R = 90

Write an equation

W = 5R - 6

Substitute

5R - 6 = 90

Add 6 to both sides of the equation

5R = 90

Simplify

90 ÷ 5 = 18

R = 18

90 - 18 = W

W = 72

Hope this was useful to you!

2.8 meters linen divided into 45 cm pieces = # of pieces and waste
pogonyaev
2.8 meter= 2800cms

To solve this, we can create a simple algebraic equation:
45x=2800
Divide both sides by 45.
(45x)/45=(2800)/45
x=62.222

You can make 62 full pieces.

To find the waste, multiply the numbers of pieces by the length of each.
62*45
=2790
2800-<span>2790
=10 centimeters

There would be 10 centimeters of wasted linen.

Hope this helps!
