To write the number of women to men as a ratio, we divide the number of women by the number of men. So, in this case, we have 8 women and 19 men.
The ratio of women to men is 8:19, which means there are 8 women for every 19 men.
To write the number of women to men as a quotient, we divide the number of women by the number of men. So, in this case, we have 8 women and 19 men.
The quotient of women to men is 8/19, which means there are 8 women for every 19 men.
To find the percentage of women in the class, we need to divide the number of women by the total number of people in the class (women + men) and multiply by 100.
Total number of people in the class = 8 women + 19 men = 27
Percentage of women = (8/27) × 100 = 29.63%
So, approximately 29.63% of the class are women.
