Question

With a strength of 24 students in Grade 7, 8 like mango juice and rest like milkshake. Find the ratio of number of students who like milkshake to mango juice.

• A. 8 : 16
• B. 1 : 2
• C. 2 : 1
• D. 16 : 24

Answer 1

The correct option is C 2 : 1

No. of students who like mango juice $=8$
Toatal number of students $=24$
$\therefore$ Number of students who like milk shakes $=16$
$\text{Ratio}=\frac{\text{No. of students who like milkshake}}{\text{No. of students who like mango juice}}$
$=\frac{16}{8}=\frac{2}{1}$
Hence, the required ratio is $2:1$
