Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the 1st part of your answer be x
, so the 2nd part will be 40-x
. From the given information, we can write the equation: (1/4)x = (3/8) × (40-x)
. We can simplify this into (1/4)x = (120-3x)/8
; 8x = 480-12x
; 8x+12x = 480
; 20x = 480
; x = 480/20; x = 24
Therefore, the 1st part = 24
Plug this into your 40-x equation to get: 40 - 24 = 16
53=20+x
Subtract 20 from 20 and 53
33=x
Hope this helps!

Answer:
4/5 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming both boxes need to fit completely on the shelf, Ebony should make it as wide as the largest of the boxes.
In decimal, 4/5 = 0.80 and 3/4 = 0.75, so 4/5 > 3/4.
The shelf should be 4/5 ft wide.
