You and your friend collect 180 cans for a food drive. The ratio of cans you collected to cans your friend collected is 4 to 5.
1 answer:
Are you looking for the number of cans you and your friend each collected? If yes, here is the solution:
Let x be the number of cans.
4x + 5x = 180
9x = 180
9x/9 = 180/9 (divide both sides of the equation by 9)
x = 20
Now, substitute the values:
4(20) + 5(20) = 180
80 + 100 = 180
180 = 180
Therefore, you collected 80 cans and your friend collected 100 cans.
