Question

$$

Answer 1

To find out how many reams of paper Landscape Elementary uses each week, we can set up a proportion.

Let x be the number of reams of paper used each week. We can write the proportion:

$\frac{x}{1}$ = $\frac{14}{3}$

To find x, we can cross multiply:

3x = 14

Dividing both sides by 3 gives us:

x = $\frac{14}{3} \approx 4.67$

Therefore, Landscape Elementary uses approximately 4.67 reams of paper each week. Rounded to the nearest hundredth, this is 4.67 reams. Answer: \boxed{4.67}.
