We first write the fractions in their decimal forms and find out the ratio.

2 1/4 is equivalent to 2.25, and 1 1/3  is equivalent to 1.33

Ratio will be 2.25 / 1.33 = 1.69  or 1.7 rounded off. Since it cannot be simplified further, then the ratio of mulch to gravel will be 1.7: 1

Quantity of mulch sold → 1.7/2.7 of 172 →0.629 ×172 = 108.2 pounds

Quantity of gravel sold will be  172 -108. 2 = 63 .8 pounds

Furkat [3]

Answer:

13,475

Step-by-step explanation:

First hour

350 people at $17.50 per ticket

350* $17.50 =$6125

Second hour

We add 20% more

350+350*.20 =350+70 =420

There were 420 people at $17.50

420*$17.50 =$7350

Add the total for the 2 hours

6125+7350=13,475
