Problem 376

Problem 376

A tennis magazine averages about 150 pages per issue.  There are seven ads for every 3 pages.  How many ads would you expect in a typical issue?

 

Solution

Suppose there are x ads for 150 pages

\frac{3}{7} = \frac{150}{x}

3x = 150 * 7

3x = 1050

X = \frac{1050}{3}

X = 350

So there are 350 ads for 150 pages
