Question

Awnser and show your work <3

Answer 1

Answer:

Team A: 25 players

Team B: 24 players

Step-by-step explanation:

Team A:

to find the total # of players of the team we need to set up a fraction. 5 out out of an unknown number of players is equal to 1/5, so we set it up as:

$\frac{5}{x} = \frac{1}{5}$

then we cross multiply to get

x*1 = 5*5

x=25 players

Team B

similarly to Team A

$\frac{3}{x} = \frac{1}{8}$

cross multiply to get

x*1=3*8

x= 24 players
