At Hillsdale High School, 20 of the members of the women's track team compete in long-distance events and 12 compete in short-distance events. On the men's track team, 15 run in long-distance events and 11 run in short-distance events. Which team has a higher ratio of long-distance to short-distance runners?

Sagot :

apologiabiology
women=20:12
men=15:11

treat as fraction and see which one is lease, remember to put 15 or 20 as top number since we are compareing them

20/12
15/11
try to compare by making bottom number same
20/12 times 11/11=220/132
15/11 time 12/12=180/132

ratios are
220:132
180:132

and women are more so women's team have more long to short
