Answer:
Mike had 14 slice of bread in his loaf while
Joey had 8 slice of bread in his loaf.
Step-by-step explanation:
We should note that a sandwich is made up of two slice of bread.
that is :
A Sandwich = 2 Slice of bread
and for bologna to be in a sandwich, you will have 2 slice of bread together.
So, For Mike,
2 slice of bread × 5 Sandwich = 10 Slice of bread
Remaining Slice of bread = 4 Slice
Total Slice of bread in Mike loaf = 10 + 4
= 14 slice of bread was in Mike loaf of bread.
For Joey
A sandwich = 2 Slice of bread
2 slice of bread × 4 Sandwich = 8 Slice of bread
Remaining slice of bread = 0
Total slice of bread in joey loaf = 8 slice of bread.
Answer:
The correct answer is 28 slices of bread
Step-by-step explanation:
Let there be BO slices of bologna and BR slices of bread in a package.
Mike use BO/5 ( 5 slides per sandwich) and he use bread, BR- 4= BO/5 x2
Joey use (BO-4)/4 and BR=(BO-4)/4 x2
We know BO and BR are the same for each one , so we can replace BR in one equation and Isolate BO
((BO-4)/4 x2)- 4= BO/5 x2
We divide each term by 2
((BO-4)/4 )- 2= BO/5
BO/4-1 -2=BO/5
BO/4-3=BO/5
BO/4- BO/5=3
5BO-4BO/20=3
1BO/20=3
BO= 3x 20
BO=60
and BR=(BO-4)/4 x2
BR=(60-4)/4 x2
BR=(56)/4 x2
BR=14 x 2= 28
