To find the answer,we can set an equation:

Let y be the number of lions.

Multiply y by 3 would be the number of monkeys:

3y = 24 \\ y =  \frac{24}{3}  \\ y = 8

Alternative method:

24÷3
=8

Therefore,there are 8 monkeys.

Hope it helps!

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

17.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of clean clothes to dirty clothes = 3 : 5

Clean clothes = 3

Dirty clothes = 5

Total ratio = 3 + 5 = 8

Total clothing article = 46

how many were clean

Number of clean clothes = ratio of clean clothes / total ratio × total clothing article

= 3/8 × 46

= 0.375 × 46

= 17.25
