Out of the 32 students in Mr. Martin's class, 18 are boys. If this ratio is proportional to the ratio of students in the school and the number of boys in the school, which of the following proportions would best be used to find the number of students in the school? It is given that there are 468 boys in the school.
A.
18/32=s/468
B.
32/18=s/468
C.
468/32=s/18
D.
32/s=18/468
B. 32/18=s/468
This proportion would best be used to find the number of students in the school because it compares the number of students in Mr. Martin's class to the total number of students in the school, given the number of boys in both Mr. Martin's class and the school.
