Question

There are 3 islanders fans for every 11 ranger fans. what is the ratio of islander fans to total fans at the game

Answer 1

So a ratio would be:

variable 1 : variable 2

So in this case, variable 1 would be islander fans, and variable 2 would be total fans.

Total fans would be 3 fans + 11 fans, or 14 fans.

So, it would therefore be:

3:14.

(There would be more fans, but the ratio would still stay the same.)
