Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation that can be used to determine the number of turtles in the zoo : number of turtles in the zoo = (ratio of turtles in the zoo / total ratio of alligators and turtles) x total number alligators and turtles
(8/11) x t = 32
where t = total number alligators and turtles
t =( 11 x 32) / 8 = 44
total number of alligators = (3/11) x 44 = 12
a second method
The ratio of alligators to turtles is 3:8.
Thus, there are 3/8 = 0.375 as many alligators as turtles
number of alligators = 0.375 x 32 = 12
