In an rt classroom, 8 students can sit around 1 table, and 48 students can sit around 6 tables. What is the relationship between the number of students to tables in fraction form? Write the proportion in fraction form without reducing it to the lowest terms.

1 answer

Let "s" be the number of students and "t" be the number of tables.
From the given information, we know that:
8 students can sit around 1 table.
Then, we can express this relationship as the fraction: 8/1.
48 students can sit around 6 tables.
Then, we can express this relationship as the fraction: 48/6.

The relationship between the number of students to tables in fraction form is: 8/1 = 48/6.
