Given:
Total people = 132
Total students = 110
The ratio of shark bookmarks to seal bookmarks to the students is 3:2.
To find:
The number of students who receive shark bookmarks.
Solution:
Let the total number of students who receive shark bookmarks be 3x and number of students who receive seal bookmarks be 2x.
Total number of students is 110. So,
[tex]3x+2x=110[/tex]
[tex]5x=110[/tex]
Divide both sides by 5.
[tex]x=22[/tex]
Now,
Number of students who receive shark bookmarks [tex]=3x[/tex]
[tex]=3(22)[/tex]
[tex]=66[/tex]
Therefore, 66 students receive shark bookmarks.
