3 0

Answer:

300

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio : 3 + 2 = 5 parts

Divide the number of appointments by 5 to find the value of one part of the ratio, that is

$\frac{500}{5}$ = 100 ← value of 1 part of the ratio

The mums consisted of 3 parts, hence

3 × 100 = 300 ← appointments with mums
