Answer 1

Answer:

ON MONDAY:  35 mosquitos.

ON TUESDAY: 6 flies.

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see in the diagram, the frog eats 3 flies for every 7 mosquitoes (for lunch). Then you can expresed this ratio as following:

3:7 or $\frac{3}{7}$

Based on the table:

-If the frog eats 15 flies on monday, then the number of mosquitos that it eats can be calculated as following:

$\frac{3}{7}=\frac{15}{mosquitoes}\\\\mosquitoes=\frac{15*7}{3}\\\\mosquitoes=35$

-If the frog eats 14 mosquitoes on tuesday, then the number of flies that it eats can be calculated as following:

$\frac{3}{7}=\frac{flies}{14}\\\\flies=\frac{14*3}{7}\\\\flies=6$
