Answer: Currently 8 action films are being shown
Explanation:
Step 1
Ratio of action film to other films = 1:2
which means 1 action movie would be shown for every 2 other films
Total ratio = 1+2 = 3
Step 2
Number of action films shown = ratio of action film/ total ratio x 24 screens
= 1/3 x 24 = 8
Number of other films shown = ratio of other films/ total ratio x 24 screens
= 2/3 x 24 = 16
Currently 8 action films and 16 other films are being shown
