Question

A 16" × 16" square tray can hold at most 9 bagels placed side by side, as shown below. At most how many bagels can a 32" × 32" square tray hold if bagels are placed side by side?\

Answer 1

Answer:

At most it can hold 18 bagels

Step-by-step explanation:

So we can make this an equation

16 · 16 square tray = 9 bagels on top of it

We just doubled both sides of it

giving us 32 · 32 square tray = 18 bagels can be held.
