1 answer:

7 0

Dogs / cats : 4/3 = d / 45.....4 dogs to 3 cats = d dogs to 45 cats
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(3)(d) = (45)(4)
3d = 180
d = 180/3
d = 60
so when there is 45 cats, there is 60 dogs

Together, teammates Pedro and Ricky got 2679 base hits last season. Pedro had 283 more hits than Ricky. How many hits did each p

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Pedro: 1481 Base hits

Ricky: 1198 Base hits

Step-by-step explanation:

First, take the total amount of base hits last season 2679, then subtract how many more Pedro has 283.

2679 - 283 = 2396 now divide the sum in half 2396 ÷ 2 = 1198 that gives you how many each player has, you're then going to add the amount that you took off to only Pedras total since he had 283 more

Pedro: 1198 + 283 = 1481

Ricky: 1198
