You will use the ratio 4:8 to create a part to part to whole ratio.
First simplify 4:8 to 1:2, then make it 1:2:3 (Salt:Sugar:Total).
Use this to find the volume of sugar. 2 sugars for every 3 total would be equivalent to 200 cubic feet of sugar for every 300 total cubic feet.
(3, 62)
Since that second equation is equal to y, you can substitute the entire thing into the top equation, getting rid of the y and solving for x. It equals 3.
You can then plug 3 in for x on either equation, which should be 62.
