Barnaby decided to count the number of ducks and geese flying south for the winter. On the first day he counted 175 ducks and 63 geese. By the end of migration, Barnaby had counted 4,725 geese. If the ratio of ducks to geese remained the same (175 to 63), how many ducks did he count?

Answer:

13,125 ducks

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of ducks:geese on the first day was:

175:63

On the last day (end of migration), he counted 4,725 geese.

To find the number of ducks using the same ratio, we are first going to divide 4,725 by 63 to find what number all the ducks and geese multiplied by:

4,725/63 = 75

The geese multiplied by 75. This means the ducks also multiplied by 75:

175*75 = 13,125

Barnaby counted 13,125 ducks.
