    Total no. Ratio

    Ride the bus x. = 3

    Total. 24 8 This creates a proportion where both fractions: x/24 and 3/8 are equivalent fractions.

    Cross multiply: 8x = (3) (24)

    Multiply: 8x = 72

    Divide both sides by 8: 8x/8 = 72/8

    Divide: x = 9 <-. The number of students who ride the bus
