Aaliyah is making up 16 party bags for her younger sister's birthday party. Aaliyah wants to put toys and sweets into the bags in the ratio 5:2.
She has 80 toys. How many sweets does she need?

32 sweets

[] The ratio 5:2 goes in the word "toys and sweets" as it is said in the sentence.

-> 5 toys for every 2 sweets

[] We know we will have 16 bags in total. She has exactly enough toys

-> 16 bags in total * 5 toys per bag = 80 toys

[] Because of this, we can multiply 2 by 16 to see how many sweets will be needed.

-> 16 bags in total * 2 sweets per bag = 32 sweets

(23*2)-12=x     x=34
