If the ratio of red balls to blue balls in a bag is 5:3, how many blue balls are there if there are 20 red balls?

• 12

• 15

• 8

• 10

Answer explanation

If the ratio of red balls to blue balls is 5:3, and there are 20 red balls, set up an equality like this: 5/3 = 20/x. To get from 5 in the left numerator to 20 in the right numerator, multiply 5*4. Since the numerator is multiplied by 4, the denominator would also be multiplied by 4. 3*4 = 12.

If the ratio of pencils to pens in a box is 7:5, how many pens are there if there are 21 pencils?

• 12

• 14

Answer explanation

To find the number of pens, set up fractions as an equality like this: 7/5 =21/x. 7*3 is 21, so multiply the 5 by 3 as well to get the number of pens, 15.
