195 students voted for eagle in the election

What is ratio?

Ratio means expressing the a figure as a fraction of total figure, in the case of falcon, the number of students that voted for falcon is seen as 5 whereas the total number of students that voted is 8 whereas for eagle, the total number of students that voted for eagle is 1 compared to 3 which represents the total number of votes cast.

In a bid to determine the number of students that voted eagle in the election, we would simply multiply total votes of 536 by 1/3

votes for eagle=1/3*586

votes for eagle=195 votes

We have rounded to the nearest whole number since number of votes cannot be fractional
