A video uploaded had 35 "up votes", if the ratio of votes to "down vote" was 7:6 how many "down votes" did the video get?

Sagot :

The amount of down votes would be 30 because 7 times 5 is 35 and to find down votes, you need to multiply 6 and 5 to get an answer of 30.
[tex]7:6=\frac{7}{6}\\\\x-number\ of\ "down\ votes"\\\\\frac{35}{x}=\frac{7}{6}\ \ \ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\7\cdot x=35\cdot6\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 7\\\\x=\frac{35\cdot6}{7}\\\\x=\frac{5\cdot6}{1}\\\\\boxed{x=30}[/tex]
