Question

At a hot dog stand, they serve regular and footlong hot dogs at a ratio of 3 to 2. Based on this ratio,how many footlong hot dogs will be served if there are a total of 80 hot dogs served

Answer 1

32 foot-long hot dogs will be served

Explanation:

The total number of "ratio units" is 3+2 = 5. If 5 units stand for 80 hot dogs, then each ratio unit represents 80/5 = 16 hot dogs.

The number of foot-long hot dogs that will be served is 2×16 = 32.
