On a field trip, there are 3 chaperones for every 20 students. There are 92 people on the trip. Answer these questions. If you get stuck, consider using a tape diagram. How many chaperones are there?

Answer explanation

There are 92 people total, including students and chaperones. Let x be the number of chaperones. The ratio of chaperones to students is 3:20. Thus, 20x/3 + x = 92. Solving gives x = 12 chaperones.
