If a kennel has 50 dogs and some of them are puppies and some of them are adult dogs . the ratio of puppies to adult dogs in a kennel are 2: 3 . how many puppies are there?

The ratio is 2:3 puppies to adult dogs, which means for every 2 puppies, there is 3 adult dogs.

Add the ratio together: 2+3 = 5

Divide total dogs by that total: 50 dogs / 5 = 10

Now multiply each number of the ratio by that to find the total number of each:

2 puppies x 10 = 20 total puppies.

3 adults x 10 = 30 total adult dogs.

a 4/6 = 9/12   not proportional

step-by-step explanation:

to find which are not proportional, we can use cross products

if it is true, they are proportional.   if it is not true, they are not proportional.

a 4/6 = 9/12

4* 12 = 6*9

48 = 54

not this is not proportional  

b 2/3 = 12/18  

2* 18 = 3 * 12

36 = 36

this is proportional

c 5/4 = 10/8  

5*8 = 4*10

40 = 40

this is proportional

d 7/5 = 35/25

7*25 = 5 * 35

175 = 175

is proportional
