Will give brainiest! Please help! A study found that 27% of the fish in a river are trout, 36% are salmon, and 18% are sturgeon. If a large fish trap is set and it captures 200, what is the ratio of salmon to total fish, in lowest terms

The ratio of salmon to total fish caught is 9 over 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with what we know. We have 200 total fish caught and 36% are salmon. The rest is just mumble jumble so don't pay attention to that.

All we have to do is find 36% of 200, and the easiest way to do that is by first knowing that 36% of 100 is 36 so if we double that it will give us 36% of 200.

36 x 2 = 72

So, the ratio of salmon to total fish caught is 72 over 200. But, in simplest form is 9 over 25 because 72/200 divided by 4/4 = 9/25.

Hope this helps! If you have any additional questions please don't hesitate tp ask me or your teacher to be sure you really master this subject. Stay safe and please mark brainliest!
