1. of the 64 animals in the shelter, 46 are dogs and the rest are cats. what is the ratio of the number of cats to the total number of animals?

Explanation:

Step1: Count stars and total shapes

Stars = 4, circles = 10, total shapes = 4 + 10 = 14

Step2: Calculate ratio (stars:total)

Ratio = 4:14 = 2:7

Step3: Find non-chocolate cupcakes

Non-chocolate = 25 - 4 = 21

Step4: Calculate ratio (chocolate:non-chocolate)

Ratio = 4:21

Step5: Count carrots and cherries

Carrots = 4, cherries = 3

Step6: Calculate ratio (carrots:cherries)

Ratio = 4:3

Step7: Find total teachers

Total teachers = 11 + 44 = 55

Step8: Calculate ratio (male:total)

Ratio = 11:55 = 1:5

Step9: Count circles and rectangles

Circles = 6, rectangles = 3

Step10: Calculate ratio (circles:rectangles)

Ratio = 6:3 = 2:1

Step11: Find number of cats

Cats = 64 - 46 = 18

Step12: Calculate ratio (cats:total)

Ratio = 18:64 = 9:32
