Question

Jack needs 22 pirates for every 2 pirate ships he manages.

Number of pirates
22/ blank / blank /
Number of ships
2/ 4 / 6 /

I need a answer for the blank

Answer 1

If he needs 22 pirates for 2 ships, then divide the number of pirates by the number of ships to find out the number of pirates per ship he needs.

(22 pirates)/(2 ships) = 11 pirates per ship

For each ship, he needs 11 pirates.

For 4 ships, he needs: 11 pirates/ship * 4 ships = 44 pirates

For 6 ships, he needs: 11 pirates/ship * 6 ships = 66 pirates

The table should read:

Number of pirates    22    44    66
Number of ships       2       4      6

Answer 2

22         2

55           5

121          11
