12 strawberries

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent strawberry with S, grape with G and honeydew with H

Given

S : G = 3 : 9

S : H = 6 : 14

Required

Solve for S when G = 36

To do this, we make use of the first ratio

S : G = 3 : 9

Substitute 36 for G

S : 36 = 3 : 9

Convert to fractions

$\frac{S}{36} = \frac{3}{9}$

$\frac{S}{36} = \frac{1}{3}$

Multiply both sides by 36

$36 * \frac{S}{36} = \frac{1}{3} * 36$

$S = \frac{1}{3} * 36$

$S = \frac{36}{3}$

S = 12

Hence, there are 12 strawberries
