There are 1200 fans. If the ratio of adult fans to children is 73:7, how many children fans are there?
+3454 This is ratio is saying, "for every 73 adult fans, there is 7 children fans."
This makes a "group" of 80 fans.
To figure out how many different "groups" of fans there are, we can divide the total fans by how many there are in one group.
1200 ÷ 80 = 15
This means there are 15 different groups are fans. The question was to figure out how many children fans there are. We know there are 7 children fans in a group, so multiply 7 by 15 to find the total children fans.
7*15=105.
There are 105 children fans.
