Answer:

There are 66 number of dogs in Miss Mulero's backyard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up equation for the given information.

Let there are 'd' number of dogs

and 'c' number of cats.

So, we can set up equation as

d+c=124

d=c+8

Let's solve the system of equations for 'd' and 'c'.

Substitute d as c+8 into the first equation then solve for 'c'

c+8+c=124

Combine like terms

2 c+8=124

Subtract both sides 8

2 c = 116

Divide both sides by 2.

c= 58

Plug in c as 58 into d=c+8

d=58+8

d=66

So, there are 66 number of dogs in Miss Mulero's backyard.

Answer:

B. 12

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 can be converted to something over 16. You have to multiply 4 x 4 to get to 16, so do the same with 3, and 3 x 4 is 12. Now the fraction/proportion is 12/16, so they will win 12 games.
