Production of Type A Widgets

Hard Problem Solving And Data Analysis Ratios, Rates, And Proportional Relationships

A factory produces two types of widgets, A and B. The production ratio of Type A widgets to Type B widgets is 3:5. If the factory produces a total of 320 widgets in a day, how many Type A widgets are produced?

Let the number of Type A widgets be represented by $x$ and the number of Type B widgets be represented by $y$. According to the ratio given, we can express this as:

$\f\frac{x}{y} = \f\frac{3}{5}$

Additionally, we know that:

$x + y = 320$
