the ratio is given as follows,

tofu tacos: chicken tacos: fish tacos

1 : 2 : 3

As the food truck sells 12 tofu tacos,

it means 1 ratio is representing 12

so chicken tacos is 2 ratioo = 2 x 12 = 24 chicken tacos

fish tacos is 3 ratio = 3 x 12 = 36 fist tacos.

So total is 12 + 24 + 36 = 72 tacos.

we can do cross-verification also

tofu tacos: chicken tacos: fish tacos

12 : 24 : 36
