The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 3 to 2. If there were 1833 yes votes, what was the total
number of votes?

Sagot :

Answer: 1,222

Step-by-step explanation:

I would set this up as a fraction

3/2=1833/x

I would divide 1833 by 3 to see what the multiple is that would be used to find the equivalent fraction. Then multiply that number by 2 to solve for x.

Another option is to cross multiply

3x=2(1833)

1833*2=3666

Divide 3x by 3 to get x alone

Divide 3666 by 3 to get answer

1222
