Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three angles. The types of triangles are scalene triangle, equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle, right angled triangle.
Two triangles are said to be similar if the ratio of their corresponding sides are in the same proportion.
AA similarity theorem states that two corresponding angles of two triangles are congruent then the two triangles are similar.
We can see that from triangle EFG and triangle GHJ that:
∠JHG = ∠GFE (given)
Also, ∠EGF = ∠JGH (vertical opposite angles are equal).
Since two angles of triangle EFG and two angles of triangle GHJ are equal, then the two triangles are said to be similar by AA similarity theorem.

Well this is kind of difficult because we have no way to determine a constant for each banana; however, we can still formulate an equation to form some sort of solution.
Divide both sides by two:
Now, we can continue to go forward as long as know how many pounds each banana bunch weighs and how many bananas are in the bunch.
We could say there are "x" bananas in each pound of bananas:
Or:
Or to isolate "c":
