Question

[DUE TOMORROW] answer with steps: Last year at RT University, the ratio of the number of
students accepted to the number of students applying
for admission was 2 to 7. RT University accepted
630 students last year, How many students applied to
RT University last year?

Answer 1

Answer:

2205

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of the number of students accepted to the number of students applying for admission = 2:7

Number of students accepted = 630 students

Number of students that applied will then be represented by x. This will be:

2/7 = 630/x

2 × x = 630 × 7

2x = 4410

x = 4410/2

x = 2205
