Stan's steakhouse employs 30 servers

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Total number of servers and cooks at Stan's steakhouse = 42

Ratio of servers to cooks = 5/2 or 5:2

2. How many servers does Stan's steakhouse employ?

We will answer the question using the Rule of Three simple, as follows:

x = Number of servers

Servers           Total employees

5                           7

x                         42

7 * x = 42 * 5

7x = 210

x = 210/7

x = 30 ⇒ Cooks = 42 - 30 = 12

Stan's steakhouse employs 30 servers and 12 cooks

aloha~! my name is zalgo and i am here to you out on this amazing day. to answer your question, yes, nonzero numbers can have a greatest common factor and that would be 1. still don't get it? let me considering every number is divisible by 1 and hence every number has 1 as a factor of theirs. so, if 2 nonzero numbers didn't share any gcf (greatest common factor), they would still have a factor in common and that would be 1.

i hope that this ! : p
