shows the number of acres
of different vegetables that a
farmer planted during a year.
Read the table carefully and
answer,
(i) What is the ratio of number
of acres of beetroot planted
to the number of acres of
spinach planted?​

Answer 1

Answer:

ratio of acres of beetroot planted to the number of acres of spinach planted is 3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

given, number of acres of different vegetables that the farmer planted in a year:

lettuce  5

spinach 10

beetroot 15

carrot 25

corn  35

total  90 acres

to find: the ratio of number of acres of beetroot planted to the number of acres of spinach planted

           = $\frac{\frac{15}{90} }{\frac{10}{90} }$

           = $\frac{15}{10}$

           = $\frac{3}{2}$  

hence, ratio of acres of beetroot planted to the number of acres of spinach planted is 3:2
