To find the whole-to-part ratio for phones and televisions, we first need to determine the total number of items sold and then the parts for phones and televisions.
Total items sold:
- Phones: 23
- Stereos: 13
- Televisions: 17
Total = 23 + 13 + 17 = 53
Now, the whole-to-part ratio for phones and televisions can be expressed as the total number of items to the number of phones and televisions:
Part for phones and televisions = Phones + Televisions = 23 + 17 = 40
Thus, the whole-to-part ratio of phones and televisions is:
Total items to the number of phones and televisions = 53 to 40
The ratio written with the word "to" is:
53 to 40
