Answer: There are 10 buttons in each box.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of boxes a store sold in last month = 15,000

Number of boxes a store sold in this month = 12,000

Total number of boxes would be

15,000+12,000=27,000

Number of buttons a store sold = 270,000

So, Number of buttons were in each box would be

\dfrac{270,000}{27000}\\\\=10

Hence, there are 10 buttons in each box.

The ratio of oranges to apples in Helen's basket is 4:3. The basket has 12 apples in it. How many oranges are in the basket?
frez [133]

Answer:

16 oranges

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of oranges to apples is 4:3 which means that for every four oranges, there are 3 apples.

Since there are 12 apples in the basket, to find the number of oranges, set up a ratio.

4/3 = x/12 (x represents the number of oranges)

Cross multiply.

48 = 3x

Divide by 3.

x = 16

There are 16 oranges in the basket.

Hope that helps.
