@amistre64 not good with word problems :l

amistre64 · Answer

we are given a ratio of passes to yards:

38: 418

we are asked to modify this by some value, x, such that 38x = 22

for the ratio to remain the same we modify both sides as:  38x:418x

find x to determine  the value of 418x

..... we just determined that x=11/19,  so use that to determine the rest
