Question

There are 9 tennis balls in 3 cans. What is the rate of number of tennis balls to number of cans?

Answer 1

That's a simple question.
Well, we know that the number of tennis ball are 9 which are to be put in 3 cans
So the  the rate of number of tennis balls to number of cans will be= number of balls/number of cans= 9/3

In order to find out the number of balls per can just simplify them= number of balls/number of cans =9/3 = 3 balls per can
So there will also be 3 tennis balls in one can

Answer 2

I think in this question we have to find the ratio .


Question:
There are 9 tennis balls in 3 cans. What is the RATIO of number of tennis balls to number of cans?


Solution:


Given:

Number of tennis ball= 9

Number of cans = 3

Ratio of number of tennis balls to number of cans= tennis ball : cans

= 9/3 = 3/1

Hence, Ratio of number of tennis balls to number of cans= tennis ball : cans= 3:1
