Answer:
There are 8 and 12 balloons for groups A and B, respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio 2 : 3 means that there are 2 balloons in group A for each 3 balloons in the group B. The amounts of balloons asigned to each groups are determined by the following formulas:
Group A
[tex]n_{A} = \frac{2}{2+3}\cdot (20)[/tex]
[tex]n_{A} = 8[/tex]
Group B
[tex]n_{B} = \frac{3}{2+3}\cdot (20)[/tex]
[tex]n_{B} = 12[/tex]
There are 8 and 12 balloons for groups A and B, respectively.
