w - width

2w - length

60 - perimeter

w + w + 2w + 2w = 6w - perimeter

The equation:

6w = 60 <em>divide both sides by 6</em>

w = 10 → 2w = 2 · 10 = 20

The area: A = width × length

A = (10)(20) = 200

<h3>Answer: The area of the garden is equal 200 square units.</h3>

Cesar has 32 boxes of pasta and 48 jars of sauce that he will be putting into bags for a food drive. He wants each bag to have the same amount of pasta and sauce and wants to use all of the items. Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements below about the number of bags Cesar can make.

What is the greatest number of bags Cesar can make and Each bag would have _____ pasta and _____ jars of sauce

Answer:

The greatest number of bags Cesar can make is 16 bags.

Each bag would have 2 pasta and 3 of jars of sauce

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using Greatest Common Factor method

The factors of 32 are: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32

The factors of 48 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48

Then the greatest common factor is 16.

Hence, the greatest number of bags Cesar can make is 16 bags.

For Pasta, We have 32 pasta

Each bag would have: 32/16

= 2 pasta

For Jars of sauce, we have 48 jars of sauce.= 48/16

= 3 jars of sauce
