Question

in mr kim's history class there are 16 male students and twelve female students. which ratio can be used to express female students to male students in simplest form

Answer 1

Anmale=16

female=12  

to find the ratio we can write it as

  16 : 12=4 : 3

for this we have to simplify both numbers with same table like in this we simplify both with table of 4

4*4=16

and

4*3=12

so ans =4:3
