Question

In a toy store, the ratio of dolls to teddy bears is 8:7. If the store has 320 dolls, how many teddy bears are in the store?

Answer 1

280 teddy bears

Explanation:

This is because you can get to 320 dolls from 8 dolls by multiplying by 40.
40 times 8 is 320.

If you do the same thing for the 7 Teddy bears

7 x 40

You will get 280. Therefore, there are 280 teddy bears for every 320 dolls.
