The question given is incomplete as the information about the headphones isn't given.

However, we can solve the problem by using hypothetical values.

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Explanation:

Given

Write the ratio of detective headphones to total headphones in the sample. Then write the ratio as a decimal and as a percent.

Let :

The number of defective headphones = 10

The total number of headphones on the sample = 50

To express as a ratio :

Defective headphones : total headphones

10 : 50 = 1 : 5

To express as a percentage ;

1 / 5 * 100% = 20%
