Question

jake sold 36 tickets to the school fair and jeanne sold 15 tickets what is the ratio in simplest form of the number of tickest jeanne sold to the number of tickests jake sold

Answer 1

it should be like this 4/13

Answer 2

Well first off, you wanna simplify both numbers. GCF (greatest common factor) of each number? 3, so divide 36 and 15 by 3. 36 / 3 = 12 and 15 / 3 = 5
Now we do the ratio. We are asked to make the ration from JEANNE to JAKE.
Our answer would be 5 : 12 or 5/12 or 5 to 12
Hope this helps!
