Answer
Group 1 would have a total of 12 cans of soda when shared in the ratio of 3 to 4
Group 2 would have a total of 16 cans of soda when shared in the ratio of 3 to 4
Explanation:
The ratio is the quantitative relation between two amounts showing the number of times one value contains or is contained within the other
The total number of cans of soda = 28
The ratio is 3:4
Step 1: sum the ratio together
3 + 4 = 7
Step 2: Divide each ratio by the total ratio and multiply by the total number of cans of soda
For group 1
3/7 * 28
= 3 * 28 / 7
3 * 4 = 12 cans of soda
Hence, group 1 has a total number of 12 cans of soda
For Group 2
4/7 * 28
= 4 * 28 /7
4 * 4 =16 cans of soda
Hence, group 2 has a total number of 16 cans of soda
