Let the number of Dogs be 3x.
Cats be 5x.
Bunnies be 7x.
According To Question :-
5x + 7x = 48
12x = 48 (dividing both sides by 4)
x = 4
No. of dogs = 3x = 3×4 = 12
No. of cats = 5x = 3×4 = 20
No. of bunnies = 7x = 7×4 = 28
Cats be 5x.
Bunnies be 7x.
According To Question :-
5x + 7x = 48
12x = 48 (dividing both sides by 4)
x = 4
No. of dogs = 3x = 3×4 = 12
No. of cats = 5x = 3×4 = 20
No. of bunnies = 7x = 7×4 = 28
