Answer:
So, the way a ratio works is "for every 1 of this, we have 4 of this" for example. (the ratio I just described would be 1:4.)
I believe I've seen this question before. If the ratio of dolls to teddy bears is 9:3 then for every 9 dolls you have 3 teddy bears.
So, since we have 240 dolls and a 9:3 ratio to teddy bears, all we have to do is take how many dolls we have (240) and divide it by 3 to see how many teddy bears we have.
So:
240 ÷ 3 = 80
If your ratio is 9:3, then 80 is your answer.
Hope this helps and have a nice day!
