The City Sights tour company had the same ratio of tourists to guide on both days this weekend. On Saturday, there were 120 tourists and 18 guides. On Sunday, there were 40 tourists. How many guides were there on Sunday?

There were 6 guides on Sunday.

Step-by-step explanation:

I suppose that this is a question about equivalent ratios:

It is said that the company had the same ratio of tourists to guides on Saturday and Sunday.

RATIO OF TOURISTS TO GUIDES:

SATURDAY: 120 : 18

SUNDAY: 40 : ?

Divide 120 by 40:

120/40 = 3

Divide 18 by 3:

18/3 = 6

Therefore:

SAT: 120 : 18

SUN: 40 : 6

Check it by multiplying both numbers in the ratio 40 : 6 by 3:

40 • 3 : 6 • 3

= 120 : 18

(You get the ratio from Saturday)

Hope this helps!

$650 per month plus utilities

step-by-step explanation:

just based on the info you gave, it would seem more cost effective to rent at $650 per month plus utilities.   if utilities are, in fact, $150 per month, your monthly living costs would be $800 as opposed to the other option of $825.
