Let R be the rate of one baker.
\n" ); document.write( "\"11%2AR%2A2.5=89\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"R=89%2F%2811%2A2.5%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "So then,
\n" ); document.write( "\"P=5.75%2AR%2A1.5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"P=%28%285.75%2A1.5%29%29%2F%2811%2A2.5%29%2A89\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"P=%28%2823%2F4%2A3%2F2%29%2F%2811%2A%285%2F2%29%29%29%2A89\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"P=6141%2F220\"
\n" ); document.write( "or in decimal,
\n" ); document.write( "\"P=27.91\"
\n" ); document.write( "We can round up to
\n" ); document.write( "\"P=28\"
\n" ); document.write( "
