Lisa's dog has 4 squeaky toys.Two thirds of the dog's toys are squeaky toys.How many dog toys does Lisa's dog have in all?

whats the answar

(2/3)x = 4

To find out how many dog toys Lisa's dog has in total, we need to calculate the total number of toys based on the information given.

We are told that two-thirds of the dog's toys are squeaky toys. Since we know that Lisa's dog has 4 squeaky toys, we can represent this as a fraction: 4/2.

To calculate the total number of toys, we can set up a proportion:
4/2 = x/3

Cross-multiplying, we get:
4 * 3 = 2 * x
12 = 2x

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 2:
12/2 = 2x/2
6 = x

Therefore, Lisa's dog has a total of 6 toys in total.
