At the zoo, for every 6 adult camels, there are 5 baby camels. There are a total of 44 adult and baby camels at the zoos.

How many baby camels are at the zoo?

Respuesta :

Find the common ratio, by adding the adults and babies together: 6+5 = 11

Divide the total by that:

44/11 = 4

the common ratio is 4.

Now multiply the given ratios by the common ratio:

Adults = 6 x 4 = 24

Babies = 5 x 4 = 20

There are 20 babies.
