Answer:

The answer to your question is x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Use proportions to solve this problem

                              \frac{x}{20} = \frac{12}{16}

Solve for "x"

                                          x = \frac{12(20)}{16}

Simplification

                                          x = \frac{240}{16}

Result

                                         x = 15

poizon [28]
------------------------------------------------------
Define jam and bread mix
------------------------------------------------------
Let the number of jar of jam be x
Let the number of packages of bread mix be y

------------------------------------------------------
Form equations and solve
------------------------------------------------------
x + y = 8 --------------------- (1)
6x + 5y = 45 ---------------- (2)

------------------------------------------------------
Rewrite equation to make x the subject
------------------------------------------------------
x+ y = 8
x = 8 - y ----------------------------(1a)

------------------------------------------------------
Substitute (1a) into (2)
------------------------------------------------------
6(8 - y) + 5y = 45
48 - 6y + 5y = 45
y = 48 - 45
y = 3

------------------------------------------------------
Substitute y = 3 into (1) to find x
------------------------------------------------------
x + 3 = 8
x  = 8 - 3
x = 5

------------------------------------------------------
Find jam and bread mix
------------------------------------------------------
Jars of Jam = x = 5
Packages of bread mix = y = 3

------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Jam = 5 ; bread mix = 3
