Question

A car factory made 41 cars. 20 of the cars had a sunroof. What is the ratio of the number of cars without a sunroof to the number of cars with a sunroof?

Write your answer as two numbers separated by a colon (for example, 2:3).

Answer 1

Answer: 21 : 20

Step-by-step explanation: Since the factory made 41 cars and 20 of them had a sunroof that means x = 41 -20. So 41 - 20 = 21 cars without sunroof. They ask to put the ratio with cars without sunroof first then cars with a sunroof so it would be 21 : 20.

(x = cars without sunroof)

Answer 2

21:20

Explanation:

Since there are 20 cars with sunroof

Subtract 20 from 41

and you get 21 which are the cars with no sunroof

making it 21:20
