Question

The ratio of students who wear glasses to the total class is 2:5

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 2:3, b. 25 students, c. 3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

a. 5 (total) - 2 (with glasses) = 3 (without glasses), making the ratio 2:3.

b. We can assign the total students with the variable x. 3:5=15:x, 75=3x, x=25. 25 total students.

c. 25 (total students) - 15 (without glasses) = 10 (with glasses). (10+5):(15-5) is 15:10, which, when simplified, equals to 3:2.
