Use the table to answer the question.
6th-Grade Average Total of Students
100–90 32
89–80 65
79–70 27
What is the part-to-whole ratio for the 6th-grade average of 79–70? Give your answer using a colon.
27:124
To find the part-to-whole ratio for the 6th-grade average of 79-70, we need to calculate the ratio of the number of students in the 79-70 grade range to the total number of students in all grade ranges.
The number of students in the 79-70 grade range is 27.
The total number of students in all grade ranges is found by adding up all the students: 32 + 65 + 27 = 124.
Therefore, the part-to-whole ratio for the 6th-grade average of 79-70 is 27:124.
you sure and explain
To calculate the part-to-whole ratio for the 6th-grade average of 79-70, we need to determine the number of students in that range and divide it by the total number of students.
Looking at the table, we can see that there are 27 students in the 6th-grade average range of 79-70. To find the total number of students, we add up the counts for all the ranges: 32 + 65 + 27 = 124.
Now, to calculate the ratio, we divide the number of students in the 79-70 range (27) by the total number of students (124):
27 / 124 = 0.2177
Using a colon to represent the ratio, the answer would be:
0.2177 : 1
I apologize for the confusion. You are correct, and I made an error in my previous response.
To calculate the part-to-whole ratio for the 6th-grade average of 79-70, we need to find the ratio of the number of students in the 79-70 grade range to the total number of students in all grade ranges.
The number of students in the 79-70 grade range is 27.
The total number of students is the sum of all the students across all grade ranges, which is 32 + 65 + 27 = 124.
So the correct part-to-whole ratio for the 6th-grade average of 79-70 is 27:124.
use a colon
I apologize for the confusion in my previous responses. To express the part-to-whole ratio for the 6th-grade average of 79-70 using a colon, it would be:
27 : 124
A baseball team has 1,200 tickets to sell. The ratio of tickets sold to unsold tickets is 5:3. What value should be inserted into each rectangle?
The number
should be inserted into each rectangle.
To determine the value that should be inserted into each rectangle, we need to divide the given 1,200 tickets into the ratio of 5:3.
The total ratio is 5+3 = 8 parts.
To find the value of each part, we divide 1,200 by 8:
1,200 / 8 = 150
Therefore, the value that should be inserted into each rectangle is 150.
