Answer 1

Answer:

i) 12:40 or 3:10

ii) 13:15

iii) 15:12 or 5:4

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Total number of students who like mango flavoured ice cream is 12

Total no.of students is 40

thus, ratio = 12:40

by reducing we get 3:10

ii) No.of student who like vanilla flavoured ice cream is 40-(12+15) = 13

No.of students who like strawberry flavoured ice cream is 15

thus, ratio = 13:15

iii) No of students who like strawberry flavoured ice cream is 15

No.of students who like mango flavoured ice cream is 12

thus, ratio= 15:12

by reducing,

we get 5:4
