Question

Ruth found 37 tickets for $7. Please help Ruth by figuring out the ratio. (round to 2 decimal places)

Answer 1

Ratio of ticket to its price is 1 : 0.189.

Explanation:

Here, the cost of 37 tickets = $7

Let us find the unit cost of the ticket.

`\textrm{Unit Price }  = \frac{\textrm{Total Price of n units}}{\textrm{n}}`

`\implies U = (7)/(37)=0.189`

So, the unit price of each ticket = $0.189

Now, ratio of Each Ticket: Unit Price = 1 : 0.189

Hence, the ratio of ticket to its price is 1 : 0.189.
