Answer:
8 adult cats
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of adult cats to kitten at the pet care center was 5:2
No of adult cats= 5x
No of kitten cats= 2x
Since there were 12 kittens that day
2x= 12
x= 12/2
x= 6
Number of adult cats = 5x
= 5 × 6
= 30 adult cats
Therefore since there were 38 adult cats in the pet center in Thursday then the difference between the number of adult cats in Thursday and Monday can be calculated as follows
= 38-30
= 8 adult cats
