The Speedy Fast Ski Resort has started to keep track of the number of skiers and snowboarders who bought season passes.The Ratio of the number of skiers who bought season passes is 1:2.If 1,250 more snowboarders bought season passes than skiers,how many skiers bought season passes






My Question:What is the answer?  Show work



Answer :

If the ratio is 1:2 and there are 1250 more snowboarders than skiers, it means that the number of snowboarders is two times 1250 (it's the only way to keep the ratio).

1:2 = 1250:2500

There are 1250 skiers and 2500 snowboarders (because 2500 is two times more and 1250 more at once).
