Didn't you already ask this? Anyways,
60/x = 5:4, x = 60/5 * 4, which gets us 48 for x.
There are 48 angelfish.
Then, using this,
48:x = 4:3, x = 48/4 * 3, and this equals 36.
Hope this helps and have a nice day:)

60/5 = 12
From the ratio we know that 5:4 is clownfish to angel fish, therefore
12*4 = 48
There are 48 angel fish.
4 angelfish : 3 goldfish
48/4 = 12
12*3 = 36
48:36
There are 36 goldfish. Hope this helps!
