Question

If 400 prints can be created for $100 how many prints can be created for $500?

Answer 1

2000 prints.

Explanation:

We know that the ratio of prints to cost in dollars is:

400 prints / $100

• We know that the number of prints and the cost is proportional.

Since $500 is 5 times $100, we can multiply 400 by 5, which will allow us to maintain the proportion and find the amount of prints that can be created for $500:

Amount of prints = 400 * 5

Amount of prints = 2000

Thus, 2000 prints can be created for $500.
