Answer:Number of cellos  =7

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of cellos to violins is 1 to 3=1:3

Total ratio = 1+3=4

To find the total number of  cellos and violins in the orchestrs,

Ratio of violins/ Total ratio  x Total number of cellos and violins  = Number of violins

3/4  x X= 21

X=21 x 4 / 3

X =7x 4  28.

Number of cellos  =Ratio of cellos / Total ratio  x Total number of cellos and violins

=1/4 x28

=7 cellos
