a. 48
So first, the ratio we know is 5:4 which in other words is 5x:4x. We also know that there are 60 clownfish. So that means 5x = 60 --> x = 12. So then 4x has to equals 12 x 4 which is 48.
b. 36
So first, the ratio we know is 4:3 which in other words is 4x:3x. We also know that there are 48 angelfish. So that means 4x = 48 --> x = 12. So then 3x has to equals 12 x 3 which is 36.
