Question

five out of 8 bags of M&Ms had exactly 32 pieces in them. how many bags out of 40 should have exactly 32 pieces?

Answer 1

Answer:25

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to set up a ratio.

5       ?

-    =   -

8      40

(5 over 8 =blank over 40)

then you cross multiply and divide by the bottom number so 5x40=200

200 divided by 8=25
