Sammy and David were selling water bottles to raise money for new football uniforms famous or 5 water bottles for every 3 water bottles David sold together they sold 160 water bottles how many did each boy still

In the given question, we come to know that Sammy sold 5 bottles for every 3 water bottles sold by David. In this case we get the ratio as 5:3

Now this ratio indicates that the total number of bottles can be divided into 8 parts for finding out a single part. the total number of water bottles that are sold by Sammy and David together are 160.

Now on dividing this total number of bottles by 8 we get the 20 as one part.

The,

Number of Bottles sold by Sammy = 5 * 20

= 100

Number of bottles sold by David = 3 * 20

= 60

So Sammy sold 100 water bottles and David sold 60 water bottles from the total of 160 water bottles.
