Write a ratio the situation in three ways comparing the first quantity to the second quantity. A zoo has 14 monkeys and 18 chimpanzees.

Answer 1

A zoo has 14 monkeys and 18 chimpanzees.

To write the ratio of numbers x and y we use three ways given below

1. x to y

2. x : y

3. $\frac{x}{y}$

Now write the ratio in three ways comparing 14 monkeys and 18 chimpanzees.

Let x be the number of monkeys

y be the number of chimpanzees

So ratio becomes

14 to 18

14 : 18

$\frac{14}{18}$
