I have this math problem that I need to do, can you explain it to me please? Divide 28 cans of soda into two groups so the ratio is 3:4.

Answer:

12 and 16

Explanation:

The ratio between the groups is 3:4, so the fractions are 3/7 and 4/7.

3/7 (28) = 12

4/7 (28) = 16

Check your answer: 12 + 16 = 28, and 12/16 = 3/4.
