5. Honey bees produce 7 pounds of honey for every 1 pound of beeswax they produce. use equivalent ratios to find how many pounds of honey are produced when 25 pounds of beeswax are produced.

Respuesta :

So the ratio of pounds to beeswax is 7:1
So if you have 25 lbs of beeswax then it goes on the right: x:25

7:1 = x:25
You can multiply both sides of the first ratio by 25 because it is a fraction and will still be equivalent
x = 175 pounds of honey
