Question

forty-six out of the total 310 seniors graduate with honors. What is the ratio of seniors graduating with honors to the total number of seniors

Answer 1

Answer: The ratio is
`(46)/(310)`

The ratio is simply the counts divided: 46 divided by the 310 of seniors. The ratio is normally kept as a fraction. If you like you can also write an approximate decimal expansion:

`(46)/(310)\approx 0.1484`
