Answer:
- Lake C: 1: 4.33…
- Lake A: 1 : 3.2
Explanation:
To find the unit rate for each comparison of carp to salmon, simply divide the number of salmon by the number of carp for each lake.
To find the proportion of salmon in each lake, divide the total number of fish by the number of salmon.
- Lake A: 48/63 = 76.2%
- Lake B: 7/42 = 16.67%
- Lake C: 39/48 = 81.25%
After finding the percentage of salmon in each lake, Lake C comes first, then Lake A, and finally Lake B.
