Leila and Jo are two partners in a business. Leila makes $2 in profits for every $3 that Jo makes. If Jo makes $18 profit on the first item they sell, how much profit does Leila make?

Answer:

I think the answer is 12

Explanation:

Because Jo made $3 6 times so you multiply that by what Lelia makes. So 2 x 6 = 12?
