Freddy is searching for a shirt and discovers that he has 12 shirts for every 6 pair of jeans. If he has 18 shirts, how many pairs of jeans does he have?       


please help me ASAP

Respuesta :

the ratio, simplify it
12shirts:6jeans
12/6=2/1
or
2shirts:1jean

18shirts
18/2=9

2shirts times 9=18shirst
2shirts:1jean times 9:9=18shirts:9jeans
answer is 9 pairs of jeans
