Answer:

If they both sell half then Kyle would have 1.5:1 and Yasmine would have 18 pennants.

Explanation:

It will change because if they both sell half, they would have to multiply by .05 or divide by 2 because that is half of something.

3/2 or 3*0.5 = 1.5

2/2 or 2*0.5 = 1

36/2 or 36*0.5 = 18

So Kyle would have 1.5:1 pennants left and Yasmine would have 18 pennants left.
