Question

Jessica collect stamps. She has 26 stamps that represent countries and 45 stamps that represent famous people. Write a ratio in simplest form that represents the number of stamps she has of famous people to the number of stamps she has total

Answer 1

Explanation:

Total number of stamps = 26 + 45 = 71

You can't reduce whatever you put into the numerator because 71 is prime (nothing but itself and 1 divide into it).

Number of stamps of famous people = 45

Ratio = famous people / total

Ratio = 45 / 71
