A student finished 72 of her homework problems in class. If the ratio of problems she finished to problems she still had left was 8 : 1, how many homework problems did she have total?

Finished:Left

8:1

8/1 = 72/x

Cross Multiply

8x=72

divide each side by 8

x=9

She already finished 72 and has 9 remaining

Total = Finished + Remaining = 72 + 9 = 81
