Question

in a complete lab, there are 5 computers for every 10 students. How many computers will be needed for 40 students? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

No. of computers needed for 10 students = 5

No. of computers needed for 1 student = 5/10

                                                                 = 1/2

No. of computers needed for 40 students = 40 x 1/2

                                                                      = 20 x 1/1

                                                                      = 20 x 1

                                                                      = 20 (answer)

Therefore, 40 students will need 20 computers.
