Question

The ratio of butterflies to bees in Lucy's insect collection is 3 to 4. If there are 32 bees, how many butterflies would there be?

Answer 1

24:32

Explanation:

When I saw that you wrote 'the ratios of BUTTERFLIES TO BEES' it tells me that I need to do the order of But. to Bees. I saw you had 3:4, and you said, '32 bees' I know because of that, 32 bees needs to be the second.

I got my answer, by seeing 4x_=32. I actually multiplied 4x8=32, and then multiplied 3x8 as well, to get 24. Then I got my answer: 24:32!
