Question

If 2 buses are needed to transport 75 students to the aquarium and 8 buses can transport 300 students to the aquarium, which proportion describes the relationship between the number of buses and the number of students? (Do not reduce the ratios to their lowest terms.)

Answer 1

The ratio of buses to students can be written as 2/75 and 8/300. Therefore, the proportion that describes the relationship between the number of buses and the number of students is 2/75 = 8/300.
