Question

During the lunch break a deli sold 36 large sodas. If the ratio of large sodas sold to small sodas sold was 4:1, how many sodas were sold?

Answer 1

Since for every small soda 4 large sodas were sold U divide 36 by 4. You get 9 so that is the total of small sodas. Then add 9 and 36 and get 45 total sodas. :) hope this helped

Answer 2

36/x = 4/1 4x=36 x=9 + 36 = 45
