Question

Today , the amazing art museum expects to sell 125% of the 1400 tickets they sold yesterday explain how to use equivalent ratios to find 125% of 1400

Answer 1

Sample Response: First, write 125% as the ratio 125100. Then write an equivalent ratio that has the answer in the numerator and 1,400 in the denominator. 100 x 14 is 1400, so 125 x 14 will be the answer. 125 x 14 = 1,750. The answer is 1,750 tickets.

Answer 2

1750

Explanation:

well first you need to know that 100 percent from yesterday is 1400, so you now want to know what 125 percent of that is. 100 x 14 is 1400 right, so 125 x 14 is 1750.

hope this helps
