Question

6 out of 10 students completed their homework. What is the ratio of students who did not do their homework to those who did?

Answer 1

Answer:

2/3 or 2:3

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6 out of 10 students completed the homework then 4 out of 10 students did not complete the homework.

So the answer is 4/6 but we are not done yet.

The 4 comes from people who didn't do it and the 6 comes from people who did.

Since its asking the ratio of students who did not do their homework to those who did the 4 comes first.

As I said we are not done yet since we have to simplify.

4/6=2/3

So the answer is 2/3 or 2:3
