Question

The warriors led the chieftains by 19 points at the half. If the warriors score 3 points every 2 points the chieftains scored, what was the halftime score?

Answer 1

57:38

Explanation:

3/2(19):x

3x = 2 * 3/2 * 19

3x = 57

x = 19

Since the ratio is 3:2, then the scores at half-time were 57:38
