Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of Niamah to Jack is 2:5, that means that for every 2 pencils that N gets, J gets 5. If there are a total of 21 pencils, then

2x + 5x = 21 and

7x = 21 so

x = 3.

That means that N gets 2(3) which is 6, and J gets 5(3) which is 15. Notice that 6:15 is the same ratio as 2:5 when it is reduced.

if 99 certons of milk was sold and 45 of them were regular flavor what is the ratio of chocolate milk sold to regular milk sold+
andreyandreev [35.5K]
Well 99 cartons sold, and 45/99 were normal
therefore 99-45 = 54
the ratio is 54:45 if they ask for chocolate to normal
wording of the question is crucial
I'm not sure if you can cancel the ration down to 6:5, you probably can
