The ratio given says this - 3 puppies : 2 adults = 5 total dogs
You are given (?) puppies : (?) adults = 80 total dogs
In this case, you are trying to find the number of puppies, so you do not need to care about the number of adults. You need to compare the ratio with the actual amount.
Total/puppies = total/puppies
5/3 = 80/(?)
Now, cross multiply. 
5(?) = 240
Divide both sides by 5 and you get your answer.
(?) = 48

There are 250 bricks used to build a wall 20 feet high.How many bricks will be used to buld a wall that is 30 fet high
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer: 375

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given the information that there are 250 bricks used to build a wall 20 feet high, the number of brick used per feet will be:

= 250/20

= 12.5 bricks per feet.

Therefore, the number of bricks that will be used to buld a wall that is 30 fet high will be:

= 12.5 × 30

= 375 bricks.

Therefore, 375 bricks would be used.
