27%=27/100
so 27/100=81/x
27x=8100 divide by 27
x=300

With 5lbs of sugar syrup to get a 25% syrup you would need to add 15lbs of water
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
Let the shorter base = x
Let the longer base = 3x
h = 5
Area = 60
Formula
Area = (b1 + b2)*h /2
Solution
60 = (x + 3x)*5 / 2 Multiply both sides by 2
2*60 = (x + 3x)*5 Combine like terms
120 = 4x *5
120 = 20x Divide by 20
120/20 = x
x = 6
Therefore the two bases are
x = 6
3x = 18
