    So 18 siamese

    the ratio was9:7=siameese:house

    18=9 units

    divide 9

    2=1 unit

    house=7 units

    7 times 2=14

    14 house cats

    combined=siameese+house=18+14=32

    For every 9 cats sold they sold 7 house cats if they sold 18

    18/9=2

    2*7=14

    18+14 = 32 cats sold
