Question

A farm has 8 cows, 28 chickens, 4 pigs, and 12 goats. which ratio is the

greatest?

a. number of pigs to number of chickens
b. number of goats to number of chickens
c. number of cows to number of goats
od. number of pigs to number of cows

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

ratio of pigs to chickens = 4/28, which simplifies to 1/12

ratio of goats to chickens = 12/28, which simplifies to 3/7

ratio of cows to goats = 8/12, which simplifies to 2/3

ratio of pigs to cows = 4/8, which simplifies to 1/2

since 2/3 is the largest, the answer is C
