Three quarters of the members of a club are juniors, the rest are seniors. Express this as a ratio of juniors:seniors.

Answer 1

Answer:

3 quarters od the members of a club are juniors.

The rest are seniors.

Now when the word quarter pops up I always think 1/4 since 4 quarters make up a dollar.

Now 3 quarters thats already 75

At the end of the day we need to make a dollar, thw amount of serious is the remaining.
75 + x = 100?
X= 25

25 are seniors which is equal to one quarter.

So 1 quarter senior 3 quarter junior.
NOw put them into the ratio junior : senior.

3:1
