The 45 members of the Henley Middle School Drama Club, 28 are girls.

Determine the ratio that describes the situation.

Solution:

In order to determine the ratio we simply need to divide 28 by 45. 

= 28/45

=0.62222..

Since we have a repeatinga decimal we can either designate it with a word repeating enclosed with a parenthesis, a dash line or ellipsis.In our case we will use the ellipsis.
