Question

bob catches 8 passes in 3 football games. At this rate, how many does he catch in 15 games?

Answer 1

He will catch 40 footballs

Because of the

8footballs:3games

ratio that was given, we can replace it with our new variables

?footballs:15games

and because in the games collumn we have a multiple of 3 we can do

8x5=40 because 3x5=15
