Question

There were 3 chihuahuas at the dog park last Saturday, along with 9 other dogs. Considering this data, how many of the next 20 dogs to arrive at the park next Saturday should you expect to be chihuahuas?

Answer 1

5

Explanation:

Since there are 3 chihuahuas out of 12 dogs IN TOTAL (which includes the 9 other dogs), the ratio is 1:4, or 1/4.

Assuming this ratio is consistent, (1/4)*20 is 5.

In conclusion, you can expect there to be 5 chihuahuas out of the next 20 dogs to arrive at the park.

Hope it helped, and have a beautiful day/night! <3
