Answer: Number of winning tickets =7 and Number of losing tickets = 28 .

Explanation:

Given: Total tickets = 35

The ratio of winning tickets to losing tickets = 1:4

Number of winning tickets =
(1)/(1+4)*35


=(1)/(5)*35\\\\=7

Number of losing tickets =
(4)/(5)*35


=4*7=28

Hence, Number of winning tickets =7 and Number of losing tickets = 28 .
