The ratio of daisies to roses is 8 daisies to 18 roses.

If there are 4 daisies, how many roses are there?

Hmmm, I will teach you how to do ratios.

 

If you see there are a specific ratio, and there is a certain quantity, divide the original ratio by the quantity.

The ratio of daisies to roses is 8:18. 4 daises would be half the ratio quantity, so the #of roses is half the ratio quantity of roses. 18/2 = 9.

 

Thus there are 9 roses.

d/r = 8/18    Given in the question.

    or    18/8 d = r

            18/8 * 4 = r = 9 roses
