1st serving: 2/3 * 1/2 = 2/6 or 1/3
2nd serving: 1/3 * 1/2 = 1/6
3rd serving: 1/6 * 1/2 = 1/12
4th serving: 1/12 * 1/2 = 1/24
5th serving: 1/24 * 1/2 = 1/48
1/3 + 1/6 + 1/12 + 1/24 + 1/48
1/3 * 16/16 = 16/48
1/6 * 8/8 = 8/48
1/12 * 4/4 = 4/48
1/24 * 2/2 = 2/48
1/48 * 1/1 = 1/48
16/48 + 8/48 + 4/48 + 2/48 + 1/48 = 31/48
Bobby ate 31/48 of the cake in total.
x^2+14x = (x+7)^2
7^2 = 49
so you would add 49 to both sides
There is no photo to go off but since the shapes are rectangles you would need to find all the sides and then add them up. Hope this helps!
