You and your friend collect 180 cans for a food drive. The ratio of cans you collected to cans your friend collected is 4 to 5. Use the tape diagram to find how many cans you collected.

tape diagram?

for every 9 cans (4 + 5) , you collected 4 and your friend collected 5

how many 9-cans in 180 cans?
... multiply the result by 4 (your part)
Answered by Henry2,
Friend collected X cans.
You collected 4x/5 cans.

x + 4x/5 = 180.
5x + 4x = 900,

Add the ratio: 4 + 5 = 9

Divide 9 with 180

180/9 = 20

The ratio is 4 to 5, with 20 being "1"

Multiply 4 with 20 & 5 with 20

4 x 20 = 80

5 x 20 = 100

You collected 80, you're friend 100

In a tape diagram, There should be two parts, in which one part is 1/9th less than half-way point, and the other 1/9 greater than the half-way point.
