16 = 2/5
16 ÷ 2 = 2/5 ÷ 2/1
8 = 1/5
8 * 5 = 1/5 * 5
40 = 5/5
You started the party with 40 brownies

Let

x--------> total number of brownies made for the party

we know that

\frac{2}{5}x=16

Solve for x

\frac{2}{5}x=16\\ \\2x=5*16\\ \\2x=80\\ \\x=40\ brownies

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

40\ brownies

GARY DREW A RECTANGLE WITH A PERIMETER OF 20 INCHES. WHAT COULD BE THE LENGTH,WIDTH,AND AREA FOR THE RECTANGLE THAT GARY DREW?
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Assume L=1.5W, where W=width, L= Length of the triangle.

Therefore,

Perimeter (P) = 2(W+L) = 2(W+1.5W) = 2(2.5W) = 5W=20 => W=20/5 = 4 in

Then, L=1.5W = 1.5*4 = 6 in

Area, A= L*W = 6*4 = 24 in^2
