Answer:

52 young calves

Step-by-step explanation:

At a dairy farm the ratio of adult milking cows to young calves was 9:2. If there were 234 adult milking cows at the farm, how many young calves were there?

The ration is given as:

adult milking cows to young calves

= 9 : 2

= 234 : x

= 9/2 = 234/x

x = Number of young calves

Cross Multiply

9 × x = 2 × 234

= x = 2 × 234/9

x = 468/9

x = 52

Hence, the number of young calves on the farm is 52.

If 12 pairs of socks sell for $5.79, then the unit rate is 12 : 5.79. If we want to find a unit rate for one pair of socks, we need to divide 5.79 by 12:
5.79 / 12 = 0,4825
So the unit rate is 1 : 0.4825
