Answer: 170:150 ; 17/15
Step-by-step explanation:
At the ticket booth at a school play 170 adult tickets and 150 student tickets were sold. To find the ratio of adults to students goes thus:
Number of adults tickets sold= 170
Number of students ticket sold= 150
Ratio of adult to student= 170:150
Writing the answer as a fraction in simplest form will be:
Number of adults tickets sold= 170
Number of students ticket sold= 150
Ratio of adult to student= 170:150
Fraction= 170/150
We divide the numerator and denominator by 10
170÷10 / 160÷10
= 17/15
