A survey was conducted to determine students preferred learning style. The distribution of responses from the sample participants are summarized as follows:
Learning Styles | Numbers of Students Who Prefer Each Style
auditory learning style| 17
visual learning style | 20
kinesthetic learning style| 13
Write a ratio that compares the number of students who preferred a visual learning style to the number of student-participants of the survey. Write your answer in the simplest fraction form.
A. 3/5
B. 2/5
C. 2/3
D. 20
B. 2/5
Explanation:
Number of students who preferred visual learning style: 20
Total number of student-participants in the survey: 17 + 20 + 13 = 50
Therefore, the ratio of students who preferred visual learning style to the total number of students is 20/50, which simplifies to 2/5.
