Question

What is the ratio for dogs is 5 to 3. There are 25 dogs how many cats are there

Answer 1

`= 15`

Explanation:

Taking that the ratio of dogs to cats is 5:3, then:

• dogs =5
• cats = 3

The number of dogs = 25, so:

`5 = 25 \\ 3 = x \\ x= 25 * 3 / 5 \\ x = 15`

Answer 2

25:15

Hope this helps :)

Explanation:

5:3 so since there is 25 dogs we had to multiply 5 to the 5 in 5:3. We will have to multiply 5 to the 3 in 5:3 to get number of cats.

5:3 = 25:15
