You got it!
You can multiply w, the number of weeks, by the 28 loaves of bread donated each week to find n, the total number of loaves of bread. How can you represent this rule as an expression?

25w

Answer 1

To represent the relationship between the number of weeks \( w \) and the total number of loaves of bread \( n \) donated, you can create the following expression:

\[
n = 28w
\]

This means that the number of loaves of bread donated \( n \) is equal to 28 (the number of loaves per week) multiplied by \( w \) (the number of weeks).

Among the options provided (w divided by 28, w + 28, 25w), none of these accurately represent the correct expression which is \( n = 28w \).

So, the expression that represents the rule is:

\[
n = 28w
\]
