Question

On the planet Tott, there are 9 frenks to every 8 vreels. If farmer Yoy

has 80 frenks on her rew farm, how many vreels are on the farm?
Round to the nearest tenth if rounding is needed?

Answer 1

71.1 vreels on the farm

Explanation:

Create a proportion where x is how many vreels are on the farm:

`(9)/(8)` =
`(80)/(x)`

Cross multiply and solve for x:

9x = 640

x = 71.1

So, to the nearest tenth, there are 71.1 vreels on the farm.
