Step-by-step explanation:

Belinay is making garlands of popcorn kernels and berries to feed the wildlife. The diagram shows the ratio of popcorn kernels to berries Belinay uses on the garlands

Kernels 4

Berries 3

Kernerls : Berries :: 4 : 3

in Garland  A  - Berries = 15

if berries  = 3  then  Kernel  = 4

=> if berries  = 1  then  Kernel  = 4/3

=> if berries  = 15  then  Kernel  = 15 * 4/3  = 20

Kernels in Garland A = 20

in Garland B  -  Kernel = 28

if Kernel = 4  Then Berries = 3

=> if Kernel = 1  Then Berries = 3/4

=> if Kernel = 28  Then Berries = 18 * 3/4 = 21

Beriies in Garland B = 21

Garland         Kernels             Berries

A                     20                   15

B                      28                   21
