Answer:
The number of butterflies he collects = 176
The number of moth he collects = 44
Explanation:
This question has to do with ratio.
We are told in the question that:He collects 4 butterflies for every moth.
Hence, the ratio of
Butterflies : Moth
4 : 1
Sum of the proportion = 4 + 1 = 5
We are also told he has a total of 220 butterflies and moths.
Hence:
The number of butterflies he collects is calculated as
4/5 × 220 = 176 butterflies
The number of moth that he collects =
1/5 × 220 = 44 moth
