A survey was conducted to determine students’ preferred learning style. The distribution of responses from the sample participants are summarized as follows:
Learning Styles Number of Students Who Prefer Each Style
auditory learning style 17
visual learning style 20
kinesthetic learning style 13

The ratio of the number of students who preferred a visual learning style to the total number of student-participants in the survey is:
20 (visual learning style) / 50 (total number of student-participants) = 2/5
Therefore, the ratio is 2/5 in its simplest fraction form.
