• The ratio of pears to green apples is 1:3 if there are 150 green apples

$\large \bf \underline{To \: Find}$

• How many pears are there

$\large \bf \underline{Solution}$

Let The Number of pears be x.

$\implies \sf{x = \cancel\dfrac{150}{3} }$

$\implies \sf{x = 50 }$

$\bigstar \underline{\boxed {\bf \red{Pears = 50}}}$
