Answer 2

Answer:

If two schools in a certain locality in Chennai has 1200 and 800 students respectively, then the ratio of number of students in the 2 schools is 3:2

Step by step explanation:

Let A and B be the names of the two schools in Chennai.

Given

Number of students in school A= 1200

Number of students in school B = 800

So the ratio of number of students in the 2 schools = number of students in school A/ Number of students in school B

$=\frac{1200}{800} \\\\=\frac{12}{8} \\\\=\frac{4*3}{4*2} \\\\=\frac{3}{2}$

Hence the ratio of number of students in two schools is 3:2
