Question

A farmer has sheeps and cows in the ratio 8:3
i) how many sheep has the farmer if he has 180 cows ?
ii) find the ratio of the number of sheep to the total number of animals the farmer has ?
iii) find the ratio of the total number of animals with the farmer to the number of cows with him ?

Answer 1

Here, change ratio to 8x and 3x

i)If he has 180 cows 3x = 180
Then x = 180/3
= 60

8x = 8 (60) = 480 sheeps is answer for i)

ii) total number of animals is 8x + 3x = 11x
Ratio = 8:11

iii) Ratio = 11:3
