Question

there are 28 people at a restaurant 14 are vegetarian and 14 are non- vegetarian. how many vegetarians and non-vegetrarians would need to leave or come in so that the ratio of vegetarians : non-vegetarians is 4 to 3?

Answer 1

8vegeterian and 6 nonvegeyerian leave shop to the given ratio

Answer 2

Hi ,

Total people = 28

ratio of veg and non-vegetarians = 4 : 3

sum of the ratio = 4 + 3 = 7 equal parts

7 parts = 28

1 parts = 28/7

1 part = 4 people

number of vegetarians = 4 parts

= 4 × 4 = 16

number of non- vegetarians = 3 parts

= 3 × 4

= 12 people

2 non-vegeterians should leave and 2 vegetarians should come to the restaurant.

I hope this helps you.
