They find food and let other ants know where it is. How do they do that?

Ants do make sounds but also use chemicals called pheromones to communicate with other ants, leaving a trail as they walk. Adult ants also have a spike along the abdomen which when rubbed with a hind leg, is believed to send warnings to  other ants that a threat is present.
