8 gorrilas
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of monkeys to gorrila = 5:2
This means there are 5 monkeys for every 2 gorrilas
when there are 20 monkeys,
let the number of gorrilas = x
5 monkeys = 2 gorrilas
20 monkeys = x
cross multiply:
5(x) = 20(2)
5x = 40
divide both sides by 5:
5x/5 = 40/5
x = 8
Hence, if there were 20 monkeys, we would have 8 gorrilas.
