the ratio of soccer ball to baseball is 12 to 15.if there is 48 soccer ball how many baseball are there
actually I misread the question,
Now I see that 12x = 48
x = 4
so we have 48 soccer balls
and 60 baseballs
(even easier than before)
uhm I think it’s 48/60 but girl idk.
To find the number of baseballs, we need to use the given ratio and the known number of soccer balls.
The ratio of soccer balls to baseballs is 12 to 15, which can be rewritten as 12/15.
If there are 48 soccer balls, we can set up the following proportion:
12/15 = 48/x
To solve for x, we cross-multiply and then solve for x:
12 * x = 15 * 48
12x = 720
x = 720/12
x = 60
Therefore, there are 60 baseballs.
soccer balls --- 12x
baseballs ------ 15x
solve 12x+15x=48
x = 16/9
soccer balls ---- 12(16/9) = 64/3 ????
bogus question!
both soccer balls and baseballs must be whole numbers.
