Answer: B
in three ways we have;
[tex]17\text{ to }12,\text{ }17\colon12,\text{ }\frac{17}{12}[/tex]
Explanation:
We want to write the ratio of the situation in three ways, comparing the first quantity to the second quantity.
Given that;
A zoo has 17 monkeys and 12 chimpanzees
so, we want to compare the number of Monkeys to the number of Chimpanzees.
There are 17 Monkeys to 12 Chimpanzees.
[tex]17\text{ to }12[/tex]
Writing in other ways, we have;
[tex]17\colon12[/tex]
and lastly in fraction;
[tex]\frac{17}{12}[/tex]
Therefore, in three ways we have;
[tex]17\text{ to }12,\text{ }17\colon12,\text{ }\frac{17}{12}[/tex]
