Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Methane: 1 carbon and 4 hydrogens

A sample 92 hydrogen atoms / carbons = ?

total atoms = ?

Process

       

                         1  :  4  ::  x  :  92

       x = number of carbons

                         x = (92 x 1) / 4

                         x = 92 / 4

                        x = 23 carbons

Total atoms = hydrogen atoms + carbon atoms

                    = 92 + 23

                    = 115 atoms
