Divide 33 photos into two groups so that the ratio is 4 to 7.

33 photos in a 4x to 7x ratio
4x + 7x = 33 11x = 33 x = 3
33 photos can be put in a 4(3) to 7(3) ratio
which is a 12 to 21 ratio
so 12 photos on one side, and 21 on the other side to get the ratio of 4 to 7
Note: a(b) = ab = a x b = a times b

You can divide 33 photos into two groups of 12 and 21 to maintain the ratio of 4 to 7. This is done by calculating the total parts of the ratio, finding the value of one part, and multiplying it to get the respective group sizes. Thus, the two groups are 12 photos and 21 photos respectively.
