21:24=ratio
Let's assume that the number of freshmen who attended is 3x, where x is a common ratio. Since the ratio of freshmen to juniors is 3 to 4, the number of juniors who attended would be 4x.
Next, we use the ratio of juniors to seniors, which is 7 to 6. Therefore, the number of seniors who attended would be 6/7 times the number of juniors, which gives us (6/7) * 4x = (24/7)x.
So, the ratio of freshmen to seniors who attended the basketball game would be 3x : (24/7)x or simply 3 : (24/7).
To simplify the ratio, we multiply both sides by 7 to get rid of the denominator: 3 * 7 : (24/7) * 7, which simplifies to 21 : 24.
Hence, the ratio of freshmen to seniors who attended the basketball game is 21 to 24.
