The number is 24. If 8 is one third of the number, you multiply 8 by 3 to find the number, which is 24.

If a third of a number is 8, then to find the total number, you have to multiply the number by 3, as 1/3 by 3 is 3/31, which is 1. 8x3 is 24. Therefore, the number that you're looking for is 24 Hope this helps :)

Answer:

Team A: 25 players

Team B: 24 players

Step-by-step explanation:

Team A:

to find the total # of players of the team we need to set up a fraction. 5 out out of an unknown number of players is equal to 1/5, so we set it up as:

$\frac{5}{x} = \frac{1}{5}$

then we cross multiply to get

x*1 = 5*5

x=25 players

Team B

similarly to Team A

$\frac{3}{x} = \frac{1}{8}$

cross multiply to get

x*1=3*8

x= 24 players
