hamsa and liam bake 108 oatmeal bars. hamsa makes 20 more bars than liam. find the ratio of the number of oatmeal bars hamsa bakes to the number of oatmeal bars liam bakes



Answer :

x+x+20=108
2x+20=108
2x=88
x=44
x+20=64
64:44
16:11
If Hamsa and Iiam bake 108 oatmeal bars and Hamsa made 20 more than Iian, we can divide the 108 by 2 and add 20 to find out how many did she bake:

108 / 2 = 54
54 + 20 = 74

So Hamsa baked 74 bars and Iian baked 108 - 74 (or 54 - 20) = 34 bars. The ratio is 74:34. We can't simplify it so that's the result.
