How many magazines are there?
12 magazine.
Step by step explanation:
The ratio of stories to magazines is 4 to 3, if there are 28 stories, how many magazines are there?
Story: c
Magazine: r
C / R
C = 4K
R = 3k
4K + 3k = 28
7k = 28
K = 7/28
K = 4
Substituting:
C = 4X4 = 16
R = 3x4 = 12
Ratio of stories to magazines: 4:3
There are 28 stories, so that would mean we would have to divide 28 by 4 to get the common rate.
28/4 = 7
So, now we can substitute it to solve the amount of magazines.
4 x 7 = 28
3 x 7 = 21
Thus, there are 21 magazine and the non-simplified ration of stories to magazines is 28:21.
