A bake sale has 12 cookies, 9 pies, 8 cakes, 4 tarts, and 3 cobblers to sell. What is the ratio of the total number of baked goods to cobblers in simplest form?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add all of the items=36 3:36 simplify if needed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First add all of the baked goods (12+9+8+4+3) which equals 36. The ratio of total baked goods (36) to cobblers is 36/3 which equals 12.

@Deadpool. I think its need to be simpify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@PawsUp96 ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1:12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do you find out which way to put it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm wrong lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok @PawsUp96

OpenStudy (inowalst):

Just like we did last time. 3:36 Divide by 3. 1:12

OpenStudy (phi):

ratio of the total number of baked goods to cobblers total to cobblers 36 : 3 12 : 1

OpenStudy (phi):

if they asked for the ratio of cobblers to total you would write 3:36 or 1:12
