okay, so basically it’s the ratio of damaged to undamaged toys. which means that damaged is ‘3’ and undamaged is ‘17’. what i would do, is that i would:

17+3=20

200/20=10

so, ‘1’ refers to 10 toys. therefore we multiply the amount of undamaged toys by 10 which would get u the answer

10x17=170

which, equals to 170 undamaged toys.

i hope this helped u :)

Answer:

What I would do is find how many undamaged toys per 1 toy and then times that by 200.
