Okay so what you do is as follows:


625/5 = 125.


Therefore 125 pallets are needed for 625 bags.

calculista

we know that

Each pallet holds [tex]5[/tex] bags

so

by proportion

Find the number of pallets needed for  [tex]625[/tex] bags of cement

[tex]\frac{1}{5} \frac{pallet}{bags} =\frac{x}{625} \frac{pallets}{bags}\\ \\5*x=625\\ \\x=625/5\\ \\x=125\ pallets[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex]125\ pallets[/tex]
