Consider there are 85 people in a warehouse, out of which some have been turned into zombies while some are still alive. If the ratio of zombies to living human beings is 2:3, calculate the total number of zombies.

Sagot :

Answer: ☕

We are given that there are 2 zombies for every 3 humans.

2 + 3 = 5

To figure the total no. of groups of humans and zombies, we divide the total strength by 5.

85/5 = 17.

Now, to get the total no. zombies and humans, we will multiply 17 by 2 and 3 respectively. The answer is thus 34 zombies and 51 humans.
