There is a ratio of 5 to 3, dogs to cats. There are 15 cats; how many dogs would you have?

8 0

Since we have 5 dogs to 3 cats, we can find a scale factor. Our new proportion is x:15.
To solve for this, we need to divide 15 by 3 to get our scale factor to find x.
15/3 = 5, so our scale factor is 5.
Multiply 5 dogs by 5 to get the new ratio.
Our new ratio is 25:15, meaning that we have 25 dogs total.
Your answer is 25 dogs.
I hope this helps!

<h3>What is a rectangular prism?</h3>

It is defined as the six-faced shape, a type of hexahedron in geometry.

It is a three-dimensional shape. It is also called a cuboid.

It is given that:

The dimensions of a living room are 18 ft. by 15 ft. by 8ft.

The volume of the living room = volume of the cuboid:

V = length×width×height

V = 18×15×8

V = 2160 cubic ft

The weight of the air = 0.08 lb. per cubic foot

The weight of the air in the room = 0.08×2160

The weight of the air in the room = 172.8 lb

Thus, the weight of the air in the room is 172.8 lb if the dimensions of a living room are 18 ft. by 15 ft. by 8ft.
