Question

The ratio of in-state to out-of-state visitors to the amusement park was 4 to 3. If there were 14,000 visitors to the park, how many were from out of state?

Answer 1

6000 people

Explanation:

Given the ratio of in-state to out-of-state visitors to the amusement park was 4 to 3, the total ratio will be 4+3 = 7

Total visitors in the park = 14,000 visitors

Number of people that were out of state = 3/7 * 14000

Number of people that were out of state = 3 * 2000

Number of people that were out of state = 6000

Hence there were 6000 people out of state.
