21% reptiles, 11% are birds. There are a total of 1,500 animals in the zoo. Is this the correct proportion that I wrote to solve?
11/21 = r/1,500
11/21 = r/1,500

hi Ms. Sue.
It is not to solve but how I am suppose to write out to solve.
the choices were;
11/21 = r 1,500 ***** this is the one I chose.
11/100 = r /1,500
21/100 = r/1,500

Yes Moby that is the opposite. Remember the opposite or any number has a - except 0.
