Question

at Mr.neelys farm, there were 75 sheep and 60 cows what is the ratio number of cows to the number of sheep's at Mr.neelys farm

Answer 1

The ratio of the number of cows to the number of sheeps in the farm is;

`\begin{gathered} (4)/(5) \\ Or \\ 4\colon5 \end{gathered}`

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

there were 75 sheep

and 60 cows

We want to find the ratio of the number of cows to the number of sheeps in the farm;

`\text{ratio}=\frac{\text{ number of cows }}{\text{ number of sh}eeps}=(60)/(75)`

reducing the ratio to the least form;

`\text{ratio=}(60)/(75)=(4)/(5)`

Therefore, the ratio of the number of cows to the number of sheeps in the farm is;

`\begin{gathered} (4)/(5) \\ Or \\ 4\colon5 \end{gathered}`
