    Your ratio would be 12:1

    Add all the parts to get the whole

    13x=9646

    find x by dividing by 13 you get 742 now just plug x in 12x=12x742

    Linton population is 8904

    Let's form an equation in the terms of Ellmore. E will be for Ellmore.

    E + 12E=9,646

    13E=9,646

    Let's divide each side by 13.

    9,646:13

    742

    So, that means there is a population of 742. Linton is 12 times as much as Ellmore. Let's multiply.

    742*12

    8,904

    There are 8,904 people in Linton.
