Answer 2

Answer:

The Staff : Student ratio is 1:14.

Explanation:

Ratio means the number of a particular quantity that corresponds to a part of another related quantity.

Basically, it means that for 1 number of 'x' how many 'y's are there.

Here the relation between per staff and the number of students is:

For every staff, there are 14 students, ie: the ratio is 1:14.

How we got this is by doing:

$Staff:Students = \frac{Staff}{Students} \\ = \frac{250}{3500} \\ = \frac{25}{350} \\ = \frac{1}{14} = 1:14$

Thus we got the ratio as 1:14.
