Question

There are 50 yellow golf balls, 45 red golf balls and 65 blue golf balls. What ratio compares the number of blue golf balls to the total number of golf balls.

Answer 1

First we have to find total number of balls
50+45+65=160
Now we can make ratio - fraction by putting number of blue balls into numerator and 160 into denominator. Then we have to simplify it.

`(65)/(160)= (65:5)/(160:5)= (13)/(32)`
It can be write as 13:32
