Question

there are 25 birds and 12 ducks. Compare the number of ducks to the number of birds.. Write your answer in three ways.

Answer 1

We have the following:

`\begin{gathered} (25)/(12)=2.08\approx2 \\ (12)/(25)=0.48\approx(1)/(2) \\ 25-12=13 \end{gathered}`

There are a little more than twice as many birds as ducks

There are a litthle less half as many ducks as birds

There are 13 more birds than ducks
