field biologist collects 220 butterflies and moths. He collects 4 butterflies for every moth. How many butterflies and how many moths does he collect?

The number of butterflies he collects = 176

The number of moth he collects = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has to do with ratio.

We are told in the question that:He collects 4 butterflies for every moth.

Hence, the ratio of

Butterflies : Moth

4 : 1

Sum of the proportion = 4 + 1 = 5

We are also told he has a total of 220 butterflies and moths.

Hence:

The number of butterflies he collects is calculated as

4/5 × 220 = 176 butterflies

The number of moth that he collects =

1/5 × 220 = 44 moth
