Question 1843: The new perking lot has spaces for 450 cars. the ratio of spaces for full-sized cars to compact cars is 11 to 4. how many spaces are for full-sized cars? How many spaces are for compact cars? Answer by longjonsilver(2297) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Ratios are easy
start with what you know: 11:4 TOTAL=15
now multiply up by 30 since 30x15=450...
ratios now are 330:120: TOTAL=450
full-sized cars = 330
compact sized cars = 120
