Answer: There are 192 horses in the ranch

Step-by-step explanation:

The combined number of cattle and horses = 960.

Ratio of  cattle to horses =12 :3

Total ratio =12+3=15

Number of horses on the ranch = ratio of horse / Total ratio x total number of horses and cattle

3/15 x 960 =  192

Therefore there are 192 horses in the ranch
