Regan swims for the Sharks swim team. Last season, the Sharks won 5 swim meets for every 3 they lost. If the Sharks had 16 swim meets in all, how many did they win?

Respuesta :

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

They won 5 for every 3 they lost.

Multiply both numbers by 2 to still have the same ratio.

They won 10 for every 6 they lost.

10 + 6 = 16

They won 10.
