Question

For every 15 bicycles seen in Harlem, there were 60 cars. How many cars will we need for 33 bicycles?

Answer 1

Answer:

132 bicycles

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of bicycles to cars is 15:60. Before anything, we need to simplify this ratio. 15/15 = 1, and 60/15 = 4. So, now we have 1:4. Since the question asks for 33 bicycles, we multiply the number of bicycles, 1, by 33. Since we are multiplying the bicycles, we also need to multiply the cars. 4 x 33 = 132.

33:132. We need 132 cars.
