Question

There are 425 vegetables at a farmers market stand. Of the vegetables, 125 of them are carrots. What is the ratio of the number of carrots to the number of other vegetables at the stand?

Answer 1

Answer:

the ratio of the number of carrots to the number of other vegetables is  25 : 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Given that

Total vegetables = 425

Out of which 125 vegetables represent carrot

the other vegatables should be

= 425 - 125

= 300

Now the ratio of the number of carrots to the number of other vegetables is

= 125 : 300

= 25 : 12

Hence, the ratio of the number of carrots to the number of other vegetables is  25 : 12
