There were more dragons than knights in the battle. In fact, the ratio of dragons to knights was 5 to 4. If there were 60 knights, how many dragons were there?

Answer:

75 Dragons

Explanation:

We know that the ratio is 5 dragons and 4 knights.

Now, there are 60 knights, meaning the original number of knights (4), was multiplied by 15. So, if one side is multiplied by 15, the other side must follow the same rule. So, 15 x 5 = 75.

There are 75 Dragons.
