<h3>Ratio</h3>
A ratio is a number representing a comparison between two named things. It is also the relative magnitudes of two quantities usually expressed as a quotient.
Mr Rowley:
Homework papers = 16
Tickets to return = 2
Ratio of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets = 16 : 2
= 16 / 2
= 8 / 1
= 8 : 1
Ms Alvera:
Homework papers = 64
Tickets to return = 60
Ratio of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets = 64 : 60
= 64/60
= 16 / 15
= 16 : 15
Therefore, the ratio of of number of homework papers to number of exit tickets of Mr Rowley and Ms. Alvera are not equivalent.
