The ratio of Jay's crayons to Hunter's crayons is 1:4. If Hunter has 44 crayons, how many crayons do they have altogether?
+2401 If the ratio of Jay's crayons to Hunter's crayons is 1/4.
That would make Jay's crayons plus Hunter's crayons is (1+1/4) of Hunter's crayons
Hunter has 44 crayons, so they both have 44*(5/4) = 55.
I hope this helped. :)))
