To find the ratio of fiction books to nonfiction books that Kai buys, we look at the numbers given: 6 fiction books and 4 nonfiction books.
The ratio can be calculated as follows:
Ratio = Number of fiction books : Number of nonfiction books
Ratio = 6 : 4
Now, we can simplify this ratio. Both 6 and 4 can be divided by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
6 ÷ 2 = 3
4 ÷ 2 = 2
So the simplified ratio is:
3 : 2
Therefore, the correct response is:
**3:2** (3 colon 2)
The ratio can be calculated as follows:
Ratio = Number of fiction books : Number of nonfiction books
Ratio = 6 : 4
Now, we can simplify this ratio. Both 6 and 4 can be divided by their greatest common divisor, which is 2:
6 ÷ 2 = 3
4 ÷ 2 = 2
So the simplified ratio is:
3 : 2
Therefore, the correct response is:
**3:2** (3 colon 2)
