Question

There are 35 beverages on the table if the ratio of beverages is 3:2 coffee to tea how many cups of coffee are there in total

Answer 1

Answer:

21 cups of coffee

Step-by-step explanation:

So the coffee:tea is 3:2. We can put it as 3x+2x=35 as we know there are 35 drinks, do not know the exact number of coffee and tea, but know the ratio.

1. 3x+2x=35
2. 3x+2x=35
3. Combine like terms, 5x=35
4. Divide by 5 to isolate variable, x=7

Now, x=7. So coffee is 3(7)=21 and tea is 2(7)=14.
