The ratio of the sale price of a jacket to the original price is 3:4. The original price is $64. What is the sale price?

Answer 1

$48

Explanation:

the 4 part of the ratio refers to the original price of $64 , then

$64 ÷ 4 = $16 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

3 parts = 3 × $16 = $48 ← sale price

Answer 2

$48

Explanation:

price of jacket : original price

3 : 4

If 64 = 4, we can find out 1.

64 / 4 = 16

16 x 3 = 48

16 x 4 = 64

48 : 64

sale price = $48

Hope this helps!
