There are 7 roses in a vase of 16 flowers. The rest are daisies.

(a) What is the ratio of roses to daisies?


(b) What is the ratio of daisies to all flowers in the vase?


Sagot :

Answer:

(a) 7:9 or 7 to 9 or [tex]\frac{7}{9}[/tex]

(b) 9:16 or 9 to 16 or [tex]\frac{9}{16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you need to figure out is how many daisies are in the vase. There are 9. So the answer to question a is 7 roses to 9 daisies. The answer to question b is 9 daisies to 26 total flowers in the vase.

I wrote #:# or # to # or [tex]\frac{#}{#}[/tex]#/# because these are all of the ways you can write a ration. I wasn't sure which one you needed.

Hope it helps! :)
