Given the statement:
Five hundred sixth-grade students were surveyed. Of these students that were surveyed... • 375 had been to a baseball game • 270 own either a cat or a dog • 125 had traveled on an airplane
Determine the ratio of total sixth-grade students to the number of students who had traveled on an airplane.
Solution:
The ratio can be written as,
Total number of students : number of students who had traveled on an airplane
= 500:125
Factor out 125 to simplify the ratio.
= 4:1
Final answer:
= 4:1
