I'm sorry can you type it out? I can't see it very well
15 pigs and 40 sheep
10 cows is equivalent to 2 parts of the ratio, hence
= 5 ← 1 part of the ratio, hence
8 parts = 8 × 5 = 40 ← number of sheep
3 parts = 3 × 5 = 15 ← number of pigs
5/3
if you divide both numbers by 8 you will reduce them to their simplest form
The answer must be a whole number because for example how are you suppose to fit half a child on a bus that can hold 44 people when it already holds that amount.
It will always be a whole number because if there are several left over students they will be put in another bus with more empty seats.
