Answer:

Ratio of male to female teachers = 3 : 7

Explanations:

Number of male teachers = 15

Number of female teachers = 35


\begin{gathered} \text{Ratio of male to female teachers = }\frac{Number\text{ of male teachers}}{\text{Number of female teachers}} \\ \text{Ratio of male to female teachers = }(15)/(35) \\ \operatorname{Re}duce\text{ to the lowest term by dividing the numerator and denominator by 5} \\ \text{Ratio of male to female teachers = }(15/5)/(35/5) \\ \text{Ratio of male to female teachers = }(3)/(7) \end{gathered}

Ratio of male to female teachers = 3 : 7
