Question

There are an average of 45 buffalos for every 125 acres in the Canadian wilderness. How many buffalos are there in 150 acres?

Answer 1

Answer:

there are 54 buffalos in 150 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

1. determine the rate of buffalos per acres

45 buffalos per 125 acres =

45 / 125 =

0.36 buffalos per 1 acre

now we know the rate of buffalos per 1 acre, we can multiply it by the required amount of acres (in this case 150)

buffalos per 1 acre x total acres = total buffalos per total acres

0.36 x 150 = 54 buffalos

therefore, there are 54 buffalos per 150 acres.

hope this helps :)
