Question

Number 4what is the ratio of 120 and 3 : 5

Answer 1

72 gr

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the sugar that he consumes daily now and the sugar that he consumes before is equal to 3 : 5, so we can use the following equation to find the new quantity.

`(x)/(120)=(3)/(5)`

Solving for x, we get:

`\begin{gathered} (x)/(120)*120=(3)/(5)*120 \\ x=(3*120)/(5) \\ x=(360)/(5) \\ x=72 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the sugar that he consumes now is 72 gr
