you're making a salad. The ratio of olives to croutons is 5 : 3. You put 12 croutons in your salad. How many olives do you have?

Hello there!

If the ratio is olives to croutons is 5:3 and you put 12 croutons on your salad, the ratio would come to 15:12 (still olives to croutons)

Hope this helps! :)
