Answer:
Blake will jog 12 blocks
Step-by-step explanation:
Allison : Blake = 3 : 2
If they keep jogging at the same rate, how many blocks will Blake jog if Allison jogs 18 blocks?
Allison : Blake = 18 : x
Equate the ratios
3 : 2 = 18 : x
3/2 = 18/x
Cross multiply
3 * x = 2 * 18
3x = 36
Divide both sides by 3
x = 36 / 3
= 12
x = 12
Blake will jog 12 blocks
