Your question appears to be phrased incorrectly.  If the ratio of soccer players to football players is 4:1 then for every 1 football player there are 4 soccer players.  For example, if there are 3 football players, there would be 12 soccer players.

The equivalent expression would be   S = 4F

The statement: "there are 4 more soccer players than football players" is not the same thing.  It simply means that we add 4 to the total of football players to find out how many soccer players there are.

The equivalent expression would be   S = F + 4

That being said:  An equivalent ratio to 4:1  would be  8:2 ,  12:3,  16:4, ...

Think of the ratio as a fraction.  4:1 = 4/1

4/1 = 8/2 = 12/3 = 16/4 ..., etc.

ehidna [41]

Answer:

The correct answer is 144.

Step-by-step explanation:

The librarian noticed that 60% of total seventh graders checked out fantasy books from the library.

Total number of seventh graders is given to be 240.

Number of seventh grade students who checked out fantasy books = 60% of 240 = 0.6 × 240 = 144.

Thus out of 240 seventh graders 144 of them would check out  a fantasy book from the library.

So you'd do 980 - 524 = $456, and then 456 ÷ 6 = $76, which is the cost of 1 chair. We already know that 1 table is $524, so if you want 2 tables and 8 chairs you'd do (524 × 2) + (76 × 8), which is 1048 + 608 = $1656, which is your answer. I hope this helps!
