Question

A class consists of 32 boys and 18 girls then the ratio of number of boys to the total number of students in the class is_____

• A. 25:16
• B. 9:25
• C. 25:9
• D. 16:25

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

We have,

Number of boys $=32$

Number of girls $=18$

Then,

Total students in class

$=32+18$

$=50$

The ratio of number of boys to students in class is

$=\frac{Boys}{Totalstudents}$

$=\frac{32}{50}$

$=\frac{16}{25}$

$=16:25$

Hence, this is the answer.
