Question

Sylvia has a total of 16 trading cards: 8 superhero cards, 4 princess cards,2 villain cards, and 2 wildlife cards. what is the ratio of superhero cards to the total number of trading cards in simplest form?

Answer 1

There as 16 cards, 2 of which are wildlife cards, so the ratio is 16 : 2. We can simplify it by dividing both sides by 2, so we'll get the ratio of 8 : 1.

I hope this helps! :)
