Answer 1

The ratio of black horses to white horses is 4 : 33.

Solution:

Given that , A herd of 37 horses has 33 white and some black horses.  

We have to find what is the ratio of black horses to white horses?

Now, number of black horses = total number of horses – number of white horses  

Number of black horses = 37 – 33 = 4 horses

Now, ratio of number of black horses to number of white horses = number of black horses : number of white horses  

= 4 : 33

Hence, the ratio of black horses to white horses is 4 : 33
