Answer 2

Required ratio is 2:5.

Explanation:

Given that number of female nurses = 250

Given that number of male nurses = 100

Now we need to find about what is the ratio of male nurses to female nurses.

So we just need to divide number of male nurses by the number of female nurses. That means divide 100 by 250. We get:

`(male)/(female)=(100)/(250)`

`(male)/(female)=(10)/(25)`

`(male)/(female)=(2)/(5)`

Hence required ratio is 2:5.
