Question 1054741
In a zoo, the ratio of adults to children is 12 to 5. If there are 153 people in the zoo, how many children are there?
<pre>Fraction that represents the number of children: {{{matrix(1,3, 12/(12 + 5), or, 12/17)}}}
With C being the number of children, we get the following PROPORTION: {{{(12/17)/1 = C/153}}}
Number of children, or {{{highlight_green(matrix(1,5, C = 153 * (12/17), or, 12(9), or, 108))}}}
