Question

a store is handing out scratch-off cards to its customers .for each card a customer wins either a coupon or a free t-shirt .the ratio of coupon cards to t-shrits is 9:2 .the total of 8,250 cards how many of the cards are t-shirts cards

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio 9:2, therefore total number of shares is 11.

because 9+2 = 11

total cards = 8,250

8,250/11 = 750

This is the value for one of the shares.

As the ratio is 9:2 we can find:

9 X 750 : 2 X 750

To see what everyone has won.

T-shirts : 2 X 750 = 1,500.
