In order to solve the equation, set up a proportion. Use the similar sides together!

1. 16/8 = x/20.... Similar sides are in one ratio and they equal another ratio...."x" represents the side of VS

2.Solve for "x" by cross multiplying: 8x = 320

3. Divide by 8 to find "x": x = 40

Side VS equals 40. Hope this helped :)

The ratio of boys to girls in a kindergarten is 2 : 3. If the total number of children is 15, find the number of girls.
bekas [8.4K]
The number of girls is 9 :) you add the two ratio numbers to equal 5 you then divide the 15 children by the ratio of 5, which is 3. you then times 2x3 and 3x3 to get the boy and the girls numbers which are 6 &9 so the number of girls is 9
