Question

On the planet Yoy, there are 9 boodins to every 14 dubbles. if farmer Pib has 120 boodins on his Frent farm, how many dubbles are on the farm.

Answer 1

There are 187 dubbins on the Frent farm

Explanation:

Here, we want to find the number of dubbles on the farm;

From the beginning of the question, we are told that there are 9 boodins to every 14 dubbles

So the ratio of boodins to dubbles is 9:14

Now, let the number of dubbles on the farm be x

Mathematically;

9/14 = 120/x

9 * x = 14 * 120

9x = 1680

x = 1680/9

x = 186.67

Since there cannot be a fractional dubbins, we will need to round up

So the number of Dubbins on the farm is 187
