Answer:

  a) 18

  b) 6

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The proportion can be written as ...

  MS/LC = 3/2 = MS/12

  MS = 12(3/2) = 18

There are 18 buildings in the Main Street district.

__

b) The proportion of stores to total buildings in the Main Street district is ...

  stores : non stores = 1 : 2

  stores : (stores + non-stores) = 1 : 3

1/3 of the buildings in the MS district are stores. There are ...

  (1/3)(18) = 6 . . . stores in the Main Street district
