Question

1. Of the 112 students in the marching band, 35 were in the

drum section. What is the ratio of drummers to other
musicians in the band?

Answer 1

If there are 35 drum students out of 112 students, that means there are 77 other band students. So, the ratio of drummers to other musicians would be 35:77, or 5:11 when simplified.

Hope this helps!
