Answer 1

In a year, there are 12 months in total. Out of these, 4 months have 30 days. The remaining months are:

- 7 months with 31 days (January, March, May, July, August, October, December)
- 1 month with 28 days (February, during a non-leap year)

So, the total number of months that do not have 30 days is:

7 (31-day months) + 1 (28-day month) = 8 months

Now, to find the ratio of the months with 30 days to the months with other than 30 days:

- Months with 30 days: 4
- Months other than 30 days: 8

The ratio is:

4 (months with 30 days) : 8 (months not with 30 days)

This can be simplified to:

1 : 2

Therefore, the correct answer is **1 to 2**.
