Answer:

Comedy movies

Explanation:

Given,

Comedy movies = 8,

Action movies = 6,

Fantasy movies = 5,

And, drama movies = 1

Thus, total movies = 8 + 6 + 5 + 1 = 20,

Also, Fraction of comedy movies =
(8)/(20) = (2)/(5)

i.e., there are 2 Comedy movies in every 5 movies,

Note : Similarly,

Fraction of Action movies =
(6)/(20) = (3)/(10)

i.e. there are 3 Action movies in every 10 movies,

Fraction of Fantasy movies =
(5)/(20) = (1)/(4)

i.e. there is 1 Fantasy movie in every 4 movies,

Fraction of drama movies =
(1)/(20)

i.e. there is 1 drama movie in every 20 movies,
