Answer:

The ratio of flour to sugar is 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let f = weight of a bag of flour

Let s = weight of a bag of sugar

3f+2s = 32

4f = 32

We have 2 equations and 2 unknowns, we can solve

4f=32

Divide by 4

4f/4 = 32/4

f = 8

Each bag of flour weights 8 pounds

Substitute this back into the first equation

3(8) +2s = 32

24+2s = 32

Subtract 24 from each side

24-24 +2s =32-24

2s = 8

Divide by 2

2s/2 = 8/2

s = 4 pounds

Flours weighs 8 pounds and sugar weights 4 pounds

We want the ratio of flour to sugar

Flour: sugar

8:4

We can divide each side by 4

8/4: 4/4

2:1

LiRa [457]

Answer:

40 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter means to add up all sides.

area means one side times one side

10 times 10 makes 100 so i am guessing each side is 10

10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 40
