There are 12 rabbits in a cage. The ratio of white rabbits to all rabbits is 3:4. How many white rabbits are in the cage?

Answer (3)

If the ratio of white rabbits to all rabbits is 3:4, then there are 3 white rabbits in every 4 rabbits. If you multiply this by three, you get 9 rabbits out of twelve that are white.

the answer is 9 because 3/4 can turn into 9/12

There are 9 white rabbits in the cage, calculated using the ratio of white rabbits to all rabbits, which is 3:4. By determining the total parts of the ratio and calculating the fraction of white rabbits, we find the specific number. We multiply the total rabbits (12) by the fraction to arrive at the conclusion.
