You can either use a ratio, or just multiply. But, a ratio does lead to multiplying in this situation.
1 Container : 55 balls; This is the ratio for one container.
9 Containers : Y balls; This is the ratio we're trying to solve, y is the number we're trying to solve.

495.
So D. 495 balls are in 9 containers.
