If there are 4 apples for every 5 oranges, and there are 16 apples, how many fruits are there altogether?

36

Step-by-step explanation:

4:5

16:n

16÷4=4

4×5=20

16:20

16+20=36

36 fruits (I'm not sure, but I think it's correct)

Step-by-step explanation:

4 apples = 5 oranges

16 apples = ? oranges

4 x ? = 16

4 x 4 = 16

5 x 4 = 20

4 apples = 5 oranges

16 apples = 20 oranges

16 + 20 = 36 fruits

both equations and proportions are better.

0.6, 3/5, and 6% are the 3 same portion.

but, when they're all changed to a decimal they would equal to 0.6.

hope this , good luck!
