Don't understand this ratio word problem and expliain! ! you in advance : for every 32 red balloons there are 56 blue balloons. if there are 7 blue balloons, how many red balloons are there?

Alright, so the ratio given here is 32:56.
Let's simplify that.
56/8 is 7
32/8 is 4
So, the balloons are in a 4:7 ratio.
If you have 7 blue balloons (the 7 in the ratio), then you must have 4 red balloons (the 4 in the ratio).
