Question

an animal shelter has a ratio of dogs and two cats that are a 3.2 and there are 30 cats at the shelter how many dogs are there

Answer 1

We have 45 dogs when we have 30 cats

Explanation:

If the ratio of dogs to cats is 3:2

We want to get to 30 cats so we need to multiply by 15 (2*15 =30)

What we do on one side we do on the other

3*15 : 2 * 15

45 :30

We have 45 dogs when we have 30 cats
