The ratio of cats to dogs at the animal shelter is 4 to 5. If there are 45 dogs at the shelter, how many total cats and dogs are there????

Sagot :

Answer:  81

Work Shown:

x = number of cats

(4 cats)/(5 dogs) = (x cats)/(45 dogs)

4/5 = x/45

4*45 = 5x

180 = 5x

5x = 180

x = 180/5

x = 36

There are 36 cats and x+45 = 36+45 = 81 cats and dogs total.
