There are 3 counselors for every 45 students at
Camp Rook. What is the maximum number of
students allowed if there are 11 counselors?
A) 15 students
B) 165 students
C) 150 students
D) 170 students

Respuesta :

3/45 = 11/x
Solve for x

3x = 495

X = 165

The answer is B

Answer

3counselors = 45 students

11counselors = x

Therefore;.

[tex] \frac{11}{3} \times 45[/tex]

45 can be divided by 3 15 times so;

[tex] \frac{11}{1} \times 15[/tex]

[tex]165[/tex]

Therefore; 165 students will be allowed if there were only 11 counselors.
