Montezuma's sells 7 burritos for every 9 tacos. One night, Logan saw that they sold 91 burritos.

How do i set up this proportion

Answer:

[tex]\frac{7}{9} =\frac{91}{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In a proportion, you want to keep the same types of items on the same side of the fraction bar. In this, case you would want to keep the values for the burritos as the numerator for the proportions and the values for the tacos as the denominators for the proportions.

Here's how it should be set up:

x=number of tacos sold that night

[tex]\frac{7}{9} =\frac{91}{x}[/tex]

As you can see, the numbers that represent burritos are in the numerator for both proportions and the values for tacos are in the denominator for both proportions.

Here is how you would set up the proportion. Plug in everything you do know and mark what you don't know with x.
