Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> number of tennis balls
y ----> number of tennis rackets
we know that
To find out the ratio of tennis balls to tennis rackets, divide the number of tennis ball by the number of tennis rackets
In this problem we have
[tex]\frac{x}{y}=\frac{5}{3}[/tex]
so
[tex]x=\frac{5}{3}y[/tex]
That means
The number of tennis balls is three-fifths times the number of tennis rackets
