The ratio of sophomores to juniors in the chess club is 3:5. There are 12 sophomores in the chess club. How many juniors are there?


Respuesta :

4c3

[tex] \frac{15}{250} = \frac{x}{300} ---> x=18 [/tex]


For every 3 sophmores there are 5 juniors. If there are 12 sophmores then there must me 20 juniors because (3*4)=12, therefore (5*4)=20.


This ratio can also be looked as a fraction.


3/5 which is the same as 12/20

the ratio is 12 to 20
