Answer:
L = 12
W = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the rectangle is 64.
2L + 2W = 64
The length and width of a rectangle are in a 3:5 ratio.
3 + 5 = 8
64/8 = 8
2L = 8 * 3 = 24
L = 24/2 = 12
2W = 8 * 5 = 40
W = 40/2 = 20

In order to compare 1/4 of a pound with 1/3 of a pound, we take them to the same dominator.
1/4=3/12
1/3=4/12
if 3 slices weigh ................... 4/12 of a pound
x slices weigh ................... 3/12 of a pound
x=

He can actually eat 2 slices and a quarter.
