If the ratio of raisins to bran flakes in a box of raisin bran flakes cereal is 3:27, how many raisins are there in a box that contains 3,000 raisins and brand flakes?

Respuesta :

Answer:

300 raisins

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 3 + 27 = 30 parts

Divide the total by 30 for the value of one part of the ratio.

3000 ÷ 30 = 100 ← value of 1 part of the ratio , then

3 parts = 3 × 100 = 300 ← number of raisins in a box
