Question

At Whitewater Junior High School, there are 360 students and 39 teachers. What is the ratio of students to each teacher rounded to the nearest tenth? a. 1:9.2 c. 120:13 b. 9.2:1 d. 13:120

Answer 1

The correct answer is B
because ratios are basically fractions
and if you divide 360/39 you get 9.23076......
and when you round it you get 9.2
So in simple words 1 teacher:9.2 students
even though that's not physically possible.
