Answer 1

96 apple pies, 64 cherry pies, and 48 blueberry pies.

Explanation:

6 + 4 + 3 = 13, and 208 / 13 = 16. Now multiply each number in the ratio by 16, so 6 x 16 = 96, 4 x 16 = 64, and 3 x 16 = 48. You can check your answer by adding all 3 numbers and making sure it adds up to 208. Hope that helps
