Complete Question

An arts academy requires there to be 5 teachers for every 90 students and 3 tutors for every 30 students.

How many students does the academy have per​ teacher?Per​ tutor?

How many tutors does the academy need if it has 80 students

Answer:

a) 18 students per teacher

b) 10 students per tutor

c) 8 tutors

Explanation:

a) How many students does the academy have per teacher?

5 teachers for every 90 students

Hence,

5 teachers = 90 students

1 teacher = x students

Cross Multiply

5 × x = 1 × 90

5x= 90

x = 90/5

x = 18 students

We have 18 students per teacher

b) How many students Per​ tutor?

3 tutors = 30 students.

1 tutor = x students

3 × x = 30 × 1

x = 30/3

x = 10 students

We have 10 students per tutor

c) How many tutors does the academy need if it has 80 students

3 tutors = 30 students.

30 students = 3 tutors

80 students = x tutors

Cross Multiply

30 × x = 80 × 3

x = 80 × 3/30

x = 8 tutors

The school needs 8 tutors for 80 students.
