Answer:

96 bales

Explanation:


(64)/(4) =
(x)/(6)

You must multiply 6 by 64, which is 384.

Then you divide that by 4, which is 96.

Therefore, the answer is 96.

Also, I lined up the bales in the same row and horses in the same row, so this way can help. It can also help if it's in the same column though, but I hope this helped you!
