Answer:

C : 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

12 turtles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, if the ratio of fish to turtles is 20:3 and there are 80 fish, then we know that you have to divide 80 by 4 to get the answer 20. However, to find out how many turtles there are you need to do the opposite and multiply instead of dividing. So you do 3 x 4, which get you your answer.

Hope this helps!
