9/2 = 81/a....9 kids meals to 2 adult meals = 81 kids meals to a adult meals
cross multiply
9a = 2(81)
9a = 162
a = 162/9
a = 18...so there were 18 adult meals
ratio is : 81/18
Answer:
D 36
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Write the information algebraically</em>
c = 3a
c + a = 48
c = children, a = adults
<em>In the second sentence (in bold), we can replace c with 3a</em>
c + a = 48 → 3a + a = 48
<em>Simplify</em>
3a + a = 48 → 4a = 48 → a = 12 (divide both sides by 4)
<em>We can then substitute or plug in a = 12 into the original equation:</em>
c + a = 48 → c + 12 = 48 → c = 36 (subtract 12 from both sides)
<h3>There are 36 children</h3>
