Question

a restaurant manager wants to order new glasses. The ratio of the number of water glasses to the number of juice glasses in the restaraunt is 15 to 2. How many juice glasses did the restaraunt manager order if she order 180 water glasses?

Answer 1

24

Explanation:

the ratio part 15 is associated with 180 water glasses

Divide water glasses by 15 to find one part of the ratio

`(180)/(15)` = 12 ← 1 part of the ratio

2 parts = 2 × 12 = 24 ← number of juice glasses
