To write 14 programming errors for every 56 programmers as a rational number, we would need to express it in the form "a/b". In this case, the numerator represents the number of errors (14) and the denominator represents the number of programmers (56).
The correct answer is:
A. 14/56
To solve this problem, we need to find the ratio of programming errors to programmers and express it as a simplified rational number.
The ratio of programming errors to programmers is 14 errors for every 56 programmers. To simplify this ratio, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 14.
When we divide 14 by 14, we get 1, and when we divide 56 by 14, we get 4. Therefore, the simplified rational number that represents this scenario is 1/4.
So, the correct answer is:
C. 14 (1/4).
A. 1456
Start Fraction 14 over 56 End Fraction
