answer choices are A.12dogs:4days B.4 dogs per day C.1 dog every 4 days or D.4 days every 8 days
well you have to set up the problem and then simplifly
sorry half asleep
ok so ill give a ex ample i have 5 green pencils and 15 blue pencils waht is the green to blue ratio
5 green to 15 blue..?
so itll be 5:15 then you simplfy to 1:3
ohhh wow im confused
i believe A.12 dogs:4 days
well thanx but im still confused on how to do it
ok you were right 5 to 15 then you simplefy think of them like fraction 5/15 when you simplfy frations you see how many can go into one another so 5 can go into 5. 1 time then 5 can go into 15. 3 times so the anwser is 1/3 or 1to 3
oh i get it
all ratios are , are fractions
that is so much simpler XD
yea just think they are frations you can write rations in many way 1:3 1 to 3 or 1/3
ohhhhhhhhhhhhh wow im stupid i got it
no your not stupid i had trouble when i did ratios they can be hard
wow thanks its hard especially when ur under pressure with a teacher right next to you XD
