In his last game the Rams” quarterback threw 18
passes and completed 10. At this rate, how many passes
will he complete if he throws 27 passes in a game?
Step by Step: 1. Set up the ration 18:10 2. Set up the 2nd ratio given in the problem 27:x We use x as the unknown part or the part we need to find out.
3. 18:10 27:x 4. We divide 27/18 that is to get the value in between of them which is 1.5.
5. Now equalize the equation we multiply 10 with 1.5.
