The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 7 to 5 . If there were
3766 yes votes, what was the total number of votes?
1 answer:
Answer: 6456
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of yes to no= 7:5
Number if yes= 3766
Since total number of yes is 3766. To find the total number of votes, 3766 / (7/7+5)
= 3766/ (7/12)
= 3766 × 12/7
= 45192/7
= 6456
There were 6456 total votes
