Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio of African Americans to Hispanics Americans present is 16 : 5  

Explanation:

Given the people attending the soccer game were:

2800 among them are Caucasians

4800 are African Americans

1500 are Hispanics

And, 1400 of those were from other ethnic backgrounds

We have to find the Ratio of African Americans to Hispanics Americans

Therefore,

African Americans : Hispanics Americans = 4800 : 1500

$\frac{\text { African American }}{\text { Hispanics American }}=\frac{4800}{1500}=\frac{48}{15}=\frac{16}{5}$

Hence, the ratio of African Americans to Hispanics Americans present in the ratio were 16 : 5
