A pet boarder keeps a dog to cat ratio of 5:2 if the boarder has room for 98 animals, then how many of them are dogs?

We have 70 dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

dogs: cats: total

5 2 7

We want 98 animals

98/7 = 14

We need to multiply each number by 14

dogs: cats: total

5*14 14*2 14*7

70 28 98

We have 70 dogs
