Question

The chart shows the number of students who participate in various sports.

A 2-column table with 5 rows. Column 1 is labeled Sport with entries flag football, tennis, dance, basketball, cheer. Column 2 is labeled Number of Students with entries 35, 27, 43, 33, 26.

What is the ratio of students who dance to the total number of students?
StartFraction 43 Over 95 EndFraction
StartFraction 43 Over 121 EndFraction
StartFraction 43 Over 164 EndFraction
StartFraction 43 Over 175 EndFraction

Answer 1

The total number of students who participate in sports is the sum of the number of students for each sport:
35 + 27 + 43 + 33 + 26 = 164

The number of students who participate in dance is 43.

Therefore, the ratio of students who dance to the total number of students is:

43/164

Simplifying this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor of 43 and 164, which is 1, we get:

43/164 = StartFraction 43 Over 164 EndFraction

So, the answer is StartFraction 43 Over 164 EndFraction.
