The ratio of adults being 5:3 means that you should first divide the audience into 8 sections. You get 18. Now, you can multiply 18 by 5 to find out how many adults there are, since 5 means quantity of adults.

There are 90 adults

how to determine which quantity is independent and which quantity is dependent when considering a situation

KATRIN_1 [288]

An easy way to think of independent and dependent variables is, when you're conducting an experiment, the independent variable is what you change, and the dependent variable is what changes because of that. You can also think of the independent variable as the cause and the dependent variable as the effect.
