Answer:

ok read the step by step

Explanation:

imagine you're in a sauna alone, the room is a comfortable warm temperature and there is a light sweat that coats your skin. suddenly a man walks in with a towel around his waist, he is a big burly man with massive muscles. he sits next to you and lets go of his towel. after some awkward conversation he gets up to leave and forgets to hold his towel. the towel falls almost in slow-mo and it reveals... a fishtail? he looks back in shock and says in a deep voice "you know too much" raises his arm and strikes you down.

Answer:

Monday is a weekday, with which there would be 8 volunteers.

In turn, Saturday is a weekend day, with which there would be 5 volunteers.

2 people will not be helped if the ratio of volunteers to the person needing help is 1:1.

Explanation:

Given that there are 8 volunteers during the weekday and only 5 volunteers on the weekend, to determine how many volunteers do you have on Monday and Saturday the following logical reasoning must be carried out:

Monday is a weekday, with which there would be 8 volunteers.

In turn, Saturday is a weekend day, with which there would be 5 volunteers.

In turn, if you have 10 people who need help from the volunteers on Monday, to determine how many will not get helped if the ratio of volunteers to the person needing help is 1: 1 the following logical reasoning must be carried out:

10: 8

1: 1

10 - 8 = 2

Thus, 2 people will not be helped if the ratio of volunteers to the person needing help is 1:1.
