Question

As you sat down to rest at the amusement park. You counted 54 kids and 36 adults walk by. What was the kid to adult ratio

Answer 1

Answer: 3:2

Explanation:

An easy way of doing this would be to divide each number by a common factor until you reached the simplest form. In this case 54/2 : 36/2 = 27 : 18

27/3 : 18/3 = 9 : 6 9/3 : 6/3 = 3:2
