Since the ratio is a part to part ratio (5 to 3) just change it to a part to whole ratio, 5 hot drinks to 8 drinks total to make things easier first. Than divide 400 by 8 to see the scale factor which is 50. Finally multiply 5 times 50 to find out how much hot drinks there was total which is 250.
Ever seen this before:
5 hot drinks : 8 total drinks
x50 =                       x50 =
250 hot drinks : 400 total drinks

What is 15/8 written in a mixed number?<br><br><br>Sorry I'm just bad at math :/​
Valentin [98]

The mixed number is 1 and 7/8 because 15 minus 8 equals 7/8 and since you went over the whole (8/8) it is 1 plus 7/8 which equals 1 and 7/8.

It's okay that you might not be good in math that's why we will help.
