Question

There are 12 animals in a zoo, what is their head to leg ratio if there are 4 goats, 2 ducks and 6 gorillas?

Answer 1

The ratio of the animals in a zoo is:-
=12:32
=3:18

Answer 2

Answer:

Ratio of animal heads to leg ratio = 3 : 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of animals = 12

Number of animal heads = 12 ----(1)

Number of goats= 4

Number of legs of goats = 4 × 4 = 16

Number of ducks = 2

Number of legs of ducks = 2 × 2 = 4

Number of gorillas = 6

Number of legs of gorillas = 6 × 2 = 12

Total legs of animals = 16 + 4 + 12 = 32 ---(2)

Ratio of animal heads to leg ratio = 12 : 32

= 3 : 8

Therefore,

Ratio of animal heads to leg ratio = 3 : 8
