Larry makes sandwiches for lunch everyday. He can make 5 sandwiches with every 3 tomatoes he buys. If he bought 6 tomatoes, how many sandwiches could he make?

30

5 s = 3 t
1 s = 3 / 5 t

x s = 6 t
x = 3/3/5 t

this isn't really a question? you answered it already. but I think you got the math wrong. he would be able to make 10 sandwiches with 6 tomatoes. because you can make 5 with three then multiply that number by two because 6 is double three, which leaves you with 10.
