The Bears have won 7 and tied 2 of their last 13 games. They have not forfeited any games. Which ratio correctly compares their wins to losses?

Question

7:13
13:7
4:7
7:4

Answer 1

To find the ratio that compares the Bears' wins to their losses, we first need to determine how many games they have lost.

The Bears have played a total of 13 games. They have won 7 and tied 2, which means the total number of games not lost or tied is:

Total Games - Wins - Ties = Losses 13 - 7 - 2 = 4

Now, we have the following:

• Wins = 7
• Losses = 4

Thus, the ratio of wins to losses is 7:4.

The correct ratio that compares their wins to losses is 7:4.
