Question

In a dictation of 10 words , Seema spelled 8 words correctly . Find the ratio of total words to wrongly spelled words

Answer 1

the answer is 1:5

total no: of words=10

no: of correctly spelled words=8

no: of misspelled words=10-8

                                       =2

∴ ratio of the correctly spelled words: $\frac{2}{10}$=$\frac{1}{5}$

                                                             =1:5
