Answer:
(a) 40% of the animals are cows.
(b) 60% of the animals are pigs.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) You have to find the percent of the cows. 2:3 can be written as 2/5 for the cows and you have to figure out x/100.
2/5 = x/100
5*20 = 100
2*20 = x
40 = x
(b) The rest of the animals on the farm are pigs so you have to subtract 40 from 100 for the answer.
100-40 = y
60 = y
