Did you know that chickens sometimes eat vegetables and fruits? A farmer likes to give the chickens apples to share. The farmer observes that 4 chickens eat 7 apples. What is the ratio of the number of chickens to apples?

Since 4 chicken ate 7 apples, there are 4 chickens for every 7 apples.

So the ratio is:

4:7, 4 to 7, 4/7

Hope this helped!
