A small company has a fleet of 
4 
pickup trucks and 
7 
delivery vans. A larger company has the same ratio of pickup trucks to delivery vans. If the larger company has 
48 
pickup trucks, how many delivery vans does it have?

Sagot :

84 pickup trucks
4 : 7 = 48 : ?
48 divided by 4 = 12. 
Use this answer to multiply 7 by. 
Eg. 12 x 7
= 84

Your answer is 84. 

4 : 7 = 48 : 84

Hope this helps! :)

Hi there, Rukie! We can solve this problem by simply dividing the number of pickup trucks (48) by their ratio number (4) and multiplying that answer by the ratio number of the delivery vans (7). So 48÷4=12. We then multiply 12×7 to get 84. So the larger company has 84 delivery trucks.

Hope that helps!
