I think this is it,please try and looking it up also for a better explanation
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
9x-14=2(3x+11)
9x-14=6x+22
9x-6x=22+14
3x=36
x=36/3=12
8 gorrilas
Explanation:
The ratio of monkeys to gorrila = 5:2
This means there are 5 monkeys for every 2 gorrilas
when there are 20 monkeys,
let the number of gorrilas = x
5 monkeys = 2 gorrilas
20 monkeys = x
cross multiply:
5(x) = 20(2)
5x = 40
divide both sides by 5:
5x/5 = 40/5
x = 8
Hence, if there were 20 monkeys, we would have 8 gorrilas.
