A class has 4 boys and 10 girls. What is the ratio in simplest form that compares number of boys to total number of students?

(A) 4:14
(B) 4:10
(C) 2:7
(D) 2:5

Respuesta :

C. The answer is C because the total amount of students is 14, and there are 4 boys, which makes the ratio 4 boys to 14 students in total. 4 and 14 are both divisable by 2, so divide 4 to get 2 and divide 14 to get 7. This leaves you with 2 and 7. The ratio would be 2 boys to 7 total students. Hope this helped
