Multiple Choice Question
On last week's math test, 32 students received passing grades and 16 students did not receive passing grades. What is the ratio of the number of students who passed the test to the total number of students who took the test?

1. 1/2
2. 2.3
3. 3/2
4. 2/1

Answer 1

The ratio of the number of students who passed the test to the total number of students who took the test is given by:

(passed) / (total) = 32 / (32 + 16) = 32 / 48

Simplifying the fraction, we get:

32 / 48 = 2/3

Therefore, the correct answer is option: 3. 3/2.
