Question

The ratio of pitchers to catchers at a baseball camp was 11:4. If there were 64 catchers, how many pitchers were at the camp?

Answer 1

Answer:

There were 176 pitchers at the camp.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The ratio of pitchers to catchers at a baseball camp was 11:4.

Let pitchers be 11x and catachers be 4x.

Total catchers = 64

4x = 64

x = 16

So,

Pitchers = 11x

= 11(16)

= 176

Hence, there were 176 pitchers at the camp.
