Mrs. Butter is a wonderful baker and she makes delicious cookies. Last Saturday she sold 72 peanut butter cookies. She also sold some oatmeal cookies. If the ratio of peanut better cookies to oatmeal cookies is 9:1, how many peanut butter and oatmeal cookies did she sell altogether?

Respuesta :

She sold 72 peanut butter cookies and 8 oatmeal cookies. We know this because us divided by 9 is 8 and 1/9 of 72 is 8, I hope this answered your question!
8 oatmeal cookies
9x8=72
1x8=8
