Example Question #21 :Ratio And Proportion

Phil invites sixty friends from his current school, thirty-five of whom are girls, to his birthday party; he also invites his two female cousins. Phil wants the ratio of girls to boys at the party to be two to one, so he decides to also invite some girls from his old school. How many new girls will he need to invite, assuming he does not invite anyone else?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

So far, there are 37 girls - 35 classmates and 2 cousins - and 26 boys - 25 classmates and Mike himself. For the ratio of girls to boys to be 2 to 1, the number of girls must be twice the number of boys, or $26 \times 2 = 52$ girls. Mike will need 52-37 = 15 more girls.

Example Question #22 :Ratio And Proportion

If candidate A receivesvote for everyvotes that candidate B receives. At the end of the election candidate B has 320 votes. How many votes did candidate A get?

Possible Answers:

960

$106\tfrac{2}{3}$

320

Correct answer:

$106\tfrac{2}{3}$

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to create a ratio with the given information. It says that for everyvote cast for candidate A, candidate B gotvotes. We can write the following ratio.

$A:B\rightarrow\frac{A}{B}$

现在在给定的数字代替。

$1:3\rightarrow \frac{1}{3}$

We know that candidate B received 320 votes. Write a new ratio.

$A:320\rightarrow\frac{A}{320}$

Now, use the original relationship to create a proportion and solve for the number of votes that candidate A received.

$\frac{1}{3}=\frac{A}{320}$

Cross multiply and solve for.

3(A)=320(1)

Simplify.

3A=320

Divide both sides of the equation by.

$\frac{3A}{3}=\frac{320}{3}$

Solve.

$A=106\tfrac{2}{3}$

现在在给定的数字代替。

$2:5\rightarrow \frac{2}{5}$

We know that candidate B received 320 votes. Write a new ratio.

$A:320\rightarrow\frac{A}{320}$

Now, use the original relationship to create a proportion and solve for the number of votes that candidate A received.

$\frac{2}{5}=\frac{A}{320}$

Cross multiply and solve for.

5(A)=320(2)

Simplify.

5A=640

Divide both sides of the equation by.

$\frac{5A}{5}=\frac{640}{5}$

Solve.

A=128
