Question

Please help me. So confuzzled @_@

Answer 1

Steps please! The ratio of bunnies to rabbits was 4 to 5. There were 1200 fewer bunnies than twice the number of rabbits. How many bunnies and how many rabbits were there?

Answer 2

um can u make the question esay im in 6th

Answer 3

Working on it :)

Answer 4

ok

Answer 5

Let variable \(b\) represents number of bunnies and variable \(r\) represents number of rabbits.

You have equations: \(\dfrac{4}{5}=\dfrac{b}{r}\\~\\b = 2r-1200\)

Can you solve these equations?

Answer 6

Ah, looks like @geerky42 has it :)

Answer 7

I can't. ;-;

Answer 8

Essentially b is twice the number of rabbits but 1200 fewer.

Like that. Can you cross multiply?
