Question

A factory manufactures cars and motorcycles in the ratio 8 : 12. If they make 1210 cars and motorcycles in a given period, how many cars do they make in the same period ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

484 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 8 + 12 = 20 parts

Divide the total made by 20 to find the value of one part of the ratio

1210 ÷ 20 = 60.5 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

number of cars = 8 × 60.5 = 484
