Yes, any question that involves numbers would be a statistical question.
<span>Let's start with basic definitions:
1 inch-----0.0833333 ft
If 0.375 Ft- represents 0.25 inches
then 1 foof-x inches
0.25 inches x 1 ft / 0.375 ft: 0.66666666666667 (2/3) inch
1 foot is represented by 2/3 of an inch</span>
The answer is 40.
1000/25 will give you the new ratio
Simple way of thinking about it
25 enlisted men = 1 officer
1000enlisted men = X officer
Cross multiply (25 by X officer and the 1 officer by the 1000)
25x = 1000
X= 40.
