Question

The children in a school were asked how many cats and dogs
they have. The ratio of cats to dogs is 3 to 2. The children have
150 cats altogether. How many dogs do the children have?

Answer 1

they would have 100 dogs!

Answer 2

Answer:

90 cats  60 dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

3x +2x = 150

5x = 150

x = 30

3(30) + 2(30) = 150

90 + 60 = 150

                         3/2 = 1.5

                      90/60=1.5
