There are 114 pencils in the art room
Solution:
Given, The constant proportionality between the number of markers and the number of pencils in our room is eight over three.
[tex]\text { number of markers }=\frac{8}{3} \times \text { number of pencils }[/tex]
There are 304 markers in the art room.
We have to find how many pencils are in the art room.
Now, from the above formula.
[tex]\begin{array}{l}{304 \text { markers }=\frac{8}{3} \times \text { number of pencils in art room }} \\\\ {\text { Number of pencils in art room }=304 \times \frac{3}{8}=38 \times 3=114}\end{array}[/tex]
Hence, there are 114 pencils in the art room
