To solve problems like this, we must simply break it down and read each part carefully. We can also set it up as a math problem to make it easier to visualize.
The elevator starts on the twentieth floor, so we will represent that with 20.
20
It goes down 11 floors, so we can represent that with a -11.
20-11=9
Now we are on floor 9. Then, we go up 5 floors, so we can represent that with a 5.
9+5=14
Using the math above, we can see the elevator is on the 14th floor.
Answer:
If we want our ratio to stay the same (3 to 5), we'll need to pair a set of 3 blue tacks with every set of 5 red tacks. In a group of 50, we can make 10 groups of 5 red tacks, so we'll also need 10 groups of 3 blue tacks, which gives us a total of 30 blue tacks
