To find the number of cats, we first need to determine the total number of parts in the ratio, which is 5 + 2 = 7 parts.
Next, we divide the total number of dogs and cats (63) by the total number of parts (7):
63 / 7 = 9
Therefore, each part in the ratio represents 9 animals.
To find the number of cats, we multiply the number of parts representing cats (5) by the value of each part (9):
5 * 9 = <<5*9=45>>45
Hence, there are 45 cats.
the ratios of cats to dogs is 5:2 ther 63 dogs and cats how many are cats
