Five out of eight birds that visited the feeder ate the birdseed. If 60 birds ate the birdseed today, how many birds visited the feeder?

Therefore, the birds visited the feeder = 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Five out of eight birds that visited the feeder ate the birdseed.

i.e. the ration is: 5/8

Given that 60 birds ate the birdseed today.

Note that if we multiply '5' by '12', we get the number 60.

Now, all we need to is to also multiply '8' by '12' to maintain the initial ratio which is 5/8.

i.e. (5×12) / (8×12) = 60/96

Therefore, the birds visited the feeder = 96
