Assuming that a cheese sandwich consists of 2 slices of bread and 3 slices of cheese, determine the number of whole cheese sandwiches that can be prepared from 32 slices of bread and 51 slices of cheese. g

Only 16 whole sandwiches can be produced

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we know that we will need two slices of bread to make a full sandwich.

We can divide the number of slices of bread by two to check how many full sandwiches can be made.

Number of complete sets of bread = 32/2 = 16 sets

Similarly, we can divide the number of slices of cheese by 3 to find out the number of complete sets of cheese that will be there:

Number of complete sets of cheese = 51/3 = 17 sets

Since we have more cheese than bread, the number of whole sandwiches that can be made will be limited to the number of sets of bread available. (in this case, the ingredient smaller in quantity will be used to limit the production) which is = 16

Therefore only 16 whole sandwiches can be produced
