In a survey of students who have either a dog or a cat

as a pet, the ratio of dog owners to cat owners is 6 to 7.
If there are 56 students who are cat owners, how many
students are dog owners?

Answer:

48

Explanation:

7 times 8 is 56 so in order to get the ratio of dog owners, you need to multiply 6 by 8 as well.
