How many guides were there on Sunday?

Respuesta :

Answer:

There were 6 guides on Sunday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Same ratio

On Saturday, 120 tourists and 18 guides.

On Sunday, 40 tourists and x guides.

Due to the same ratio:

[tex]\frac{120}{40} = \frac{18}{x}[/tex]

[tex]3 = \frac{18}{x}[/tex]

[tex]3x = 18[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{18}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x = 6[/tex]

There were 6 guides on Sunday.
