Answer 1

Answer:

100:350                   simplified: $\frac{2}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation

A ratio of 2:3 means that for every item of A, we can expect of item B. Therefore, our total group is 2+3=5.

Calculate expected number of item A:

$\frac{2x500}{5}$

Expected number of item A: $\frac{1000}{5}$

This fraction can be reduced by 5 giving you:

Expected number of item A: 200

Calculate expected number of item B:

$\frac{3x500}{5}$

Expected number of item B: $\frac{1500}{5}$

This fraction can be reduced by 5 giving you:

Expected number of item B: 300
