Captain salamander has a box of chocolates. he gives his friends 3/5 he has 14 left how many were there to start with

Captain salamander has 35 chocolates at start.

An equation is used to show the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let x represent the amount of chocolate at first.

Since he gives his friends 3/5 and he has 14 left, hence:

x - (3/5)x = 14

(2/5)x = 14

x = 35

Therefore Captain salamander has 35 chocolates at start.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/5 - 3/5

= 2/5 which represents 14

If 2/5 = 14

What about 5/5 ?

5/5 x 14 x 5/2

= 35 bars of chocolate

what is all that apply?

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume length of parallelogram is 'l'

width of parallelogram is 'w'

the perimeter of a parallelogram must be no less than 40 feet

so, we get

we are given

length of parallelogram is 6 feet

so,

l=6

we can plug it

now, we can solve for w

subtract both sides by 12

divide both sides by 2

and we get

so,

the smallest possible measurement of the width is 14 feet
