Help me with ratio for maths. Thank you

Answer 1

Answer:

according to given data.

a) The no. of children doing painting is nine times as much the adults were doing.

let children = x and adult =y.

9x = y

multiplying by 5.

45x = 5y.

So, there are 45 children that can paint .

B) The no. of children doing rafting is three times as much the adults were doing.

let children = x and adult =y.

3x = y.

multiplying by 8.

24x = 8x.

So, minimum 8 adults are needed
