PLEASE HELP

In a group of people, the ratio of brown-eyed people to blue-eyed people is 3:1. If there are 12 people with brown eyes, how many total people are in the group?

Answer 1

3:1 ratio meaning for every 3 brown eyed people there are 1 blue eyed. So if you have 12 brown every you have 4 blue eyed. Giving you a total of 16 people.
