1/4 of the chocolates contains nuts

The rest of the chocolate do not contain nuts

Write down the ratio of the number of chocolates that contain nuts to the number of chocolates that do not contain nuts
Give your awnser in the form 1:n

Answer 1

1:3

Explanation:

The part that contains nuts = 1/4

The part that do not contain nuts = 1-1/4 =3/4

We need to find the ratio of the number of chocolates that contain nuts to the number of chocolates that do not contain nuts. It can be calculated as follows :

`Ratio=((1)/(4))/((3)/(4))\\\\=(1)/(4)* (4)/(3)\\\\=(1)/(3)`

So, the required ratio is 1:3.
