A basketball team played 52 games and won 39. What is the ratio of games won to number of games played? Represent the ratio as a decimal and round it to the nearest hundredth.
To find the ratio of games won to the number of games played, you divide the number of games won by the total number of games played.
Number of games won = 39
Total games played = 52
Ratio = \( \frac{39}{52} \)
Calculating the ratio:
\[ \frac{39}{52} = 0.75 \]
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the ratio is 0.75.
The local food pantry has fourteen cans of green beans, forty-nine cans of corn, fifteen cans of chicken noodle soup, and eight cans of black beans. What is the ratio of cans of green beans to cans of corn in the food pantry? Represent the ratio as a decimal and round it to the nearest hundredth.
To find the ratio of cans of green beans to cans of corn, divide the number of cans of green beans by the number of cans of corn.
Number of cans of green beans = 14
Number of cans of corn = 49
Ratio = \( \frac{14}{49} \)
Calculating the ratio:
\[ \frac{14}{49} = 0.2857142857 \ldots \]
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the ratio is 0.29.
In a classroom, there are 6 3rd-grade students and 10 6th-grade students. Express the ratio of 3rd graders to the entire number of students as a fraction.
To express the ratio of 3rd-grade students to the entire number of students, first determine the total number of students.
Number of 3rd-grade students = 6
Number of 6th-grade students = 10
Total number of students = 6 + 10 = 16
Now, the ratio of 3rd graders to the total number of students is:
\[ \frac{6}{16} \]
This fraction can be simplified:
\[ \frac{6 \div 2}{16 \div 2} = \frac{3}{8} \]
So, the ratio of 3rd graders to the entire number of students as a fraction is \(\frac{3}{8}\).
Just answer
\(\frac{3}{8}\)
No
\(\frac{6}{16}\)
