A ratio is comparing one thing to another (numbers in this case). You can write ratios in many ways
here’s three different ways.
There are four girls and and 2 boys.
The ratio of girls to boys is:
4:2
4 to 2
4/2
*THE RATIO MUST ALWAYS BE IN ORDER!!! If boys come first in the problem WRITE THE BOYS NUMBER FIRST! If girls come first, WRITE THE GIRLS FIRST IN THE RATIO!!! (That’s a very common mistake) hope this helps!
Let’s designate the number of banana splits sold as x. That means the number of sundaes sold is x + 8.
Now if we put this into an equation, also keeping in mind their costs, we get:
3(x) + 2(x + 8) = 156
Now to solve for x:
3x + 2(x + 8) = 156
3x + 2x + 16 = 156
5x = 140
x = 28
That means you’ve sold 28 banana splits and 36 sundaes! :)
