Question

The ratio of cookies to glasses of milk is 4:1. if there are 25 glasses of milk, how many cookies are there?

Answer 1

There are 100 cookies.

To find the number of cookies, we can set up a proportion using the given ratio of cookies to glasses of milk, which is 4:1. Let x be the number of cookies:

4/1 = x/25

Now, cross-multiply and solve for x:

1 * x = 4 * 25

x = 100
