Given:

Kelly spends 5 hours each week playing softball and 4 hours each week practicing her violin.

To find:

The ratio of hours spent practicing violin to hours spent playing softball three different ways.

Solution:

We have,

Time spend on Softball = 5 hours

Time spend on Violin = 4 hours

The ratio to hours spent practicing violin to hours spent playing softball is


\text{Required ratio}=\frac{\text{Time spend on Violin}}{\text{Time spend on Softball}}


\text{Required ratio}=(4)/(5)

It can be written as


\text{Required ratio}=4:5


\text{Required ratio}=4\text{ to }5

Therefore, the ratio of hours spent practicing violin to hours spent playing softball three different ways are
(4)/(5), 4:5 and 4 to 5.
