Question

**MEDAL**
I'm creating flash cards for the ASVAB. Please help me write some basic formulas!

If 400 people can be seated in 8 subway cars, how many people can be seated in 5 subway cars?

A. 200
B. 250
C. 300
D. 250

Answer 1

Using ratios:\[{400 \over 8 }=\frac x5\]

Answer 2

I see.
So 400/8 * 5 = 250.
Thanks for you help! :)
