A Transformer Is Used To Convert 120 V To 8.6 V In Order To Power A Toy Electric Train. If There Are 260 Turns

Please help me!!!
A transformer is used to convert 120 V to 8.6 V in order to power a toy electric train. If there are 260 turns in the primary, how many turns should there be in the secondary?

The voltage ratio is the same as the turns ratio. So the easiest solution is:
120/8.6 = 260/X whoops I got the X on the bottom, no problem
8.6/120 = X/260 and X = 8.6*260/120
= 18.63 turns
actually you would probably put 19 turns as a practical matter.
