Answer:

Carl needs 7 pairs of jeans and 14 shirts for 14 days camp trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Carl needs to take 2 pairs of jeans and 4 shirts for every 4 days he spends at camp.

Let x be the number of jeans and y the number of shirts Carl needs for 14 days at camp.

Relation 1:

[tex]\frac{x}{14}= \frac{2}{4}[/tex]

=> [tex]4x=28[/tex]

x = 7

Relation 2:

[tex]\frac{y}{14}= \frac{4}{4}[/tex]

=> [tex]4y=56[/tex]

y = 14

Hence, Carl needs 7 pairs of jeans and 14 shirts for 14 days camp trip.
