Let x = amount for dog
let 2/3x-5 = amount for cat

x + 2/3x-5 = 195   combine x's
1 2/3x or 5/3x
5/3x-5 =195   add 5 to both sides
5/3x = 200   multiply both sides by 3
5x = 600   divided both sides by 5
x = 120

the cost of the dog is $120.00

Answer:

The answer to your questions is: 25 new teachers

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

# of students = 2000

ratio = 3:80 teachers to students

New teachers = ?

Process

I suggest to use rule of three to solve this problem

                     3 teachers ----------------  80 students

                      x                ----------------  2000 students

                  x = (2000 x 3) / 80 = 75 teachers

               Number of initial teachers = 75

The ratio change to 1:20

                     1 teacher -------------------  20 students

                     x             -------------------   2000 students

                     x = (2000 x 1) / 20

                    x = 100 teachers

Number of new teachers = 100 - 75 = 25
