In a fish tank 8over11 of the fish have a red stripe on them if 16 of the fish have stripes, how many total fish are
2 answers:
8/11 of what = 16
8/11x = 16
x = 16 * 11/8
x = 176/8
x = 22......so there are a total of 22 fish in the tank
Let x = total number of fish in the tank
8x/11 = 16
Solve this for x
Cross multiplying
8x = 11*16 = 176
x = 176/8 = 22
There are 22 fish
