Assuming that there is no wastage of beef.
Note that 3 1/2 = 7/2 = 14/4 = 14 * 1/4
This means that we can have 14 sets of quarter pound beef.
This in turn means that George can make 14 quarter pound burgers.

Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
The marked sides are proportional, so we have ...
x/8 = (x +5)/12
3x = 2(x +5) . . . . . multiply by 24 to clear fractions
3x = 2x + 10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
x = 10 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2x
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
We observe that the difference between the upper segment lengths is ...
(x +5) -(x) = 5
and the difference between the lower segment lengths is ...
12 -8 = 4
This means the upper segment lengths are 5/4 times as long as the lower segments. Then ...
x = (5/4)(8) = 10
Answer:
side = 111.274........
Explanation:
area of square = side × side
means we're finding area by finding square of side.
now, we're finding side. so, we'll do the opposite of square, which means square root.
so,
side = 111.274........
